On April 16, the Financial Times reported that an analysis of campaign finance records revealed that the cryptocurrency and AI industries raised approximately $250 million over the past year to support congressional candidates in the upcoming U.S. midterm elections this November. A16z co-founders Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz donated a total of $25 million in February to the Super PAC 'Leading The Future,' which supports AI-friendly candidates. This organization has raised about $75 million from billionaires, including the two founders and OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman; when including 'dark money' non-profits that do not disclose their donors, the total rises to $140 million. The largest Super PAC in the crypto industry, Fairshake, has raised over $134 million on its own. In January, Cantor Fitzgerald, a Wall Street firm previously led by current U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo and now managed by her son Brandon, which has a partnership with Tether, donated $10 million to the pro-crypto Super PAC Fellowship; the parent company of major crypto platform Anchor Labs also contributed an additional $1 million to Fellowship PAC. Elon Musk donated $1.6 million to his America PAC in March, significantly reducing his involvement compared to 2024, when he invested over $250 million across various PACs. Anthropic pledged $20 million to the non-profit Public First Action, which has redirected some of its funds to the Super PAC to influence the 2026 elections. The company holds a unique position in the industry, explicitly calling for the establishment of strict federal AI safety regulations, which contrasts with the majority of participants in the AI sector.
