The Defend American Jobs and Protect Progress political action committees, which are aligned with the cryptocurrency industry, announced they have committed over $1.5 million to media purchases.
The spending targets four congressional contests – two House seats and two Senate seats – scheduled for primary elections on Aug 18.
The PACs said the funds will be used for television, digital and other advertising to influence voter decisions ahead of the primaries.
