According to CoinMeta, the pro-artificial intelligence super political action committee Leading the Future has raised $140 million for the 2026 U.S. elections, with funds coming from executives of OpenAI and Palantir as well as venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz. This amount is close to the $200 million invested in previous elections by the cryptocurrency industry. AI's lobbying efforts face competition from the camp led by Anthropic. Anthropic has donated $20 million each twice to the lobbying organization Public First Action, which, together with its affiliated groups, has invested approximately $80 million in mitigating major risks associated with artificial intelligence.
