Pro-AI Super PAC Leading the Future Backs Three Democrats in General Election

Leading the Future, a well-funded artificial intelligence industry super PAC, is endorsing three Democratic House candidates in the 2026 general election: Val Hoyle (OR-4), Rob Menendez (NJ-8), and Richie Torres (NY-15). The endorsement marks an expansion of the group's influence into the general election phase, as the super PAC—backed by Andreessen Horowitz, OpenAI President Greg Brockman, and Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale—seeks to elect lawmakers aligned with its pro-innovation AI policy agenda across both parties.
