The “AIPAC is the biggest lobby” myth collapses the moment you look at the numbers.

Supporting Israel pays off for America by advancing shared security interests, technological innovation and economic opportunity.

Rejecting support from AIPAC and other pro-Israel groups risks marginalizing Jewish political participation, reinforcing antisemitic stereotypes and weakening support for the U.S.-Israel alliance.

AIPAC’s advocacy helps sustain the U.S.-Israel alliance by building bipartisan support for shared democratic values, security cooperation, and mutual strategic interests.

The Democratic National Committee’s recent decision to reject a resolution targeting AIPAC does not erase the troubling reality that such a proposal advanced as far as it did.

As Israel phases out U.S. military aid, AIPAC has an opportunity to help build a new U.S.-Israel partnership centered on joint defense innovation, strategic cooperation, American manufacturing and shared competition with China and Iran.

AIPAC backing Rep. Haley Stevens in Michigan’s Democratic Senate primary against Abdul El-Sayed is good for America because of El-Sayed's ties to to Hasan Piker and his failure to condemn antisemitic attacks across America.

The AIPAC I know is a space full of genuine bipartisanship at a time when our country desperately needs more of it. I see young people given a seat at the table and the chance to engage our nation’s leaders. I see students learning that advocacy is not just posting an opinion online – it is showing up, building relationships, and turning values into action.

AIPAC is an ally in the fight for democratic values at home and abroad, and Democrats who are serious about governing a broad, diverse coalition should embrace that ally and its millions of Democratic members.

The real scandal in American politics is not that American Jews want a strong U.S.-Israel alliance and a safe and thriving Israel. It is that so many voices on the far-left and far-right now treat Jewish political engagement as a crime.
