[Defend Developers PAC @defenddevspac]

Congratulations to the incoming members of the 120th Congress!

We are at an interesting political moment. As technological innovation continues to accelerate, policymakers will face increasingly complex decisions about how emerging technologies, especially AI, are developed and regulated in the United States. The 120th Congress will confront technology policy questions that will inevitably have significant implications on software developer liability and the future of American innovation.

Defend Developers PAC remains committed to supporting Congressional leaders who champion software developers and a technology-optimistic vision for America’s future. DDPAC will continue to support Congressional leaders who stand up for developer protections to preserve America’s technological leadership.

@defenddevspac launched today is doing one thing: supporting lawmakers and candidates that support developers.

Thanks to @glzavatone for creating this much-needed organization and to @berniemoreno for championing the BRCA, the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act!

[Defend Developers PAC @defenddevspac]

Crypto builders need a political voice.

Contribute to Defend Developers PAC today to champion the right to build crypto tomorrow.

@wagmiAlexander @DromosLabs Thank you. DDPAC is here to champion builders like you. https://t.co/mQeGH6608S

[alexander @wagmiAlexander]

I started building in DeFi as a fully doxxed American — knowing that no matter how hard I tried to do it right, I could still end up in jail or sued by my own government.

This one's personal. @DromosLabs is fully behind it.

@haydenzadams Thank you, Hayden. We are here to fight for DeFi builders like you. 🦄🦄🦄

[Hayden Adams 🦄 @haydenzadams]

We've gone to legal/regulatory hell and back just because we had the audacity to build open source permissionless software

So I'm a huge fan of this initiative

Fighting the good fight

NEWS: DEFEND DEVELOPERS PAC LAUNCHES AMID CLARITY FIGHT

Crypto in America reported the launch of Defend Developers PAC, the first PAC focused exclusively on backing lawmakers who support legal protections for blockchain developers.

It will focus only on existing members of Congress, where the group believes donor dollars can have the greatest impact, and expects to deploy more than SIX FIGURES across dozens of races during the midterms.

The PAC was founded by Gavin Zavatone, policy lead at the DeFi Education Fund, and its board includes members also from the Solana Policy Institute, Uniswap, American Innovation Project, and Orca Creative.

[CoinDesk @CoinDesk]

NEW: Defend Developers PAC launches to back incumbent lawmakers who support legal protections for crypto and DeFi builders, targeting six figures across dozens of midterm races.

[Miller @millercwl]

Policymakers that support developers deserve developers' support!

Thank you @glzavatone for creating the first PAC focused on doing that—and that alone. I'm looking forward to helping build the movement.

Proud to join @defenddevspac as a Board Member

For too long, devs building decentralized tech have not had a unified voice in Congress

DDPAC is changing that through support of Members of Congress who champion dev protections and builders

Join us: https://t.co/ChKg6iZ1WG

[Amanda Tuminelli @amandatums]

Proud to join the @defenddevspac board. The decisions Congress makes now will set tech and digital asset policy for decades. DDPAC is backing the incumbents who *actually* champion software developers and infrastructure providers as those decisions get made.

[Allie Page @cows2crypto]

The 2026 election cycle will shape the committees that set tech and digital asset policy for years to come. That's why I'm proud to serve on @defenddevspac’s board.
