Crypto super PAC to spend $30M opposing Sherrod Brown in Ohio

Fairshake’s biggest single-candidate spend this cycle comes after Senate Democrats blocked the Clarity Act, which would have favored crypto firms.

  • On Monday, the crypto industry's super PAC, Fairshake, announced a $30 million advertising campaign against former Senator Sherrod Brown, a Democrat attempting a comeback in the Ohio Senate race.
  • This aggressive spending follows last week's Senate vote blocking the Clarity Act, legislation every Senate Democrat opposed despite industry efforts to secure favorable regulatory treatment.
  • Fairshake holds a combined $120.4 million war chest across affiliated committees, building on the $41 million it spent attacking Brown in 2024 when he chaired the Senate Banking Committee.
  • Brown faces Republican Senator Jon Husted in a race where current polling shows 48% support for Brown versus 45% for the incumbent, while the Democrat's campaign manager Patrick Eisenhauer criticized billionaire influence.
  • Fairshake plans additional spending in House and Senate races in the coming weeks, aiming to shift the Senate majority after the industry's top legislative priority failed to pass.
