The Protect Progress political action committee has been behind media buys for candidates in many congressional races across the United States.
The political action committee (PAC) Protect Progress has used more than $1.3 million to support the campaign of a Democratic candidate for Arizona’s 3rd Congressional District.
According to expenditures filed with the Federal Election Commission, the Protect Progress Super PAC disseminated more than $1.3 million in a media buy to support Yassamin Ansari. The Arizona Democrat will compete for the congressional seat in a July 30 primary against Raquel Terán and Duane Wooten.
Though Terán’s and Wooten’s policy positions on crypto and blockchain were unclear at the time of publication, Ansari’s campaign website stated she supported “lead[ing] the way in the blockchain and crypto innovation.” The Democratic candidate also completed Coinbase’s Stand With Crypto questionnaire, suggesting she would support pro-crypto legislation if elected to Congress.
