The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) lobbies the U.S. government in support of the agenda of the right-wing Israeli government. This pernicious influence has impacted U.S. foreign policy for years, but in 2022 AIPAC took a step toward greater power. It created a political action committee and began endorsing and funding U.S. political candidates to the tune of millions of dollars. "Funding" is, of course, a euphemism for what is widely understood to be a system of legalized bribery.

And whom did AIPAC PAC endorse in 2022? Just 109 Republicans who voted to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

AIPAC has also formed a new SuperPAC, absurdly named the United Democracy Project. In 2022, it intervened in 10 Democratic-Party primaries to defeat progressive candidates, almost all candidates of color.

AIPAC was just getting started. This year it is threatening to spend $100 million to unseat progressive, pro-peace members of Congress, funnelling mountains of money from Republican billionaires, corporate interests, and Donald Trump’s donors into Democratic primaries and general elections.

Well, we're just getting started too. We're part of a huge coalition that is telling Democrats No, we will not support AIPAC-funded candidates. Add your name here.

This is a year for taking a stand. For once voters are challenging an unacceptable candidate with votes for "Uncommitted."

Now is a time to tell every Congressional member and candidate: I will not support you if you take AIPAC money.
