Cedar Innovation Foundation Launches 7-Figure Clarity Act Ad Blitz as Sept. 15 Senate Vote Nears

3 articles · Updated · Punchbowl News · Sep 8

Summary

  • A crypto-linked 501(c)(4) tied to Fairshake will roll out three national cable ads in coming days to bolster the Clarity Act ahead of the Senate’s initial Sept. 15 vote.
  • Two spots promote the bill as bipartisan crypto market-structure reform, citing backing from AARP, the National Fraternal Order of Police, Major Cities Chiefs Association and NOBLE.
  • The third ad targets banks, accusing them of using Washington lobbyists to block competition and protect profits after months of industry opposition slowed the bill’s progress.
  • That banking pushback has centered especially on fears that stablecoin yield products could drain deposit funding from smaller lenders, making the ad campaign part of a broader fight over crypto regulation.
