A prominent cryptocurrency-backed super PAC, Protect Progress, has launched a $1.5 million advertising campaign aimed at unseating incumbent Representative Al Green in the Texas Democratic primary. This significant financial commitment represents one of the industry’s most aggressive interventions in a congressional race this cycle. The PAC is part of a network of crypto-affiliated political action committees, including Fairshake, which have collectively raised over $100 million to influence the 2024 elections. Representative Green, who has served Texas’s 9th congressional district since 2005, has previously expressed skepticism regarding certain aspects of the digital asset industry. The spending is being utilized for television and digital advertisements designed to influence voters ahead of the primary, highlighting the growing political influence of the crypto sector as it seeks to promote candidates more favorable to its legislative goals.
