Tell Democratic elected officials to reject AIPAC

March 15, 2024

AIPAC is your problem too. This conservative, anti-Palestinian lobby group bolsters bigoted candidates and drives billions in deadly weapons to Israel. That means putting dangerous politicians in power, funding an active genocide, and taking critically needed resources away from our own communities.

You and I have seen the consequences over and over. Politicians, fearing AIPAC’s influence, will refuse to call for a permanent ceasefire, to stop arming Israel, or to hold the Israeli regime accountable for its war crimes in any way. Sometimes they’ll call for even more massive violence, as AIPAC-funded House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries recently said that the genocide must continue.

Now, AIPAC and their Super PAC are threatening to spend $100 million against Democrats this election cycle. Their goal is to unseat progressive members of Congress like the Squad—which they’re pushing through millions in contributions from Republican billionaires, corporate interests, and Donald Trump’s donors.

Stand up and fight back! USCPR Action is teaming up with a broad coalition of progressive organizations to urgently resist, including Justice Democrats, Jewish Voice for Peace Action, MPower Action Fund, and more.

Will you join the fight? Sign our pledge to demand that Democratic elected officials reject AIPAC now.

Protesters rallied outside the AIPAC building in DC, just down the street from USCPR Action’s new ad.

AIPAC frames itself as a bipartisan group. But their Super PAC, the United Democracy Project, only spends against Democrats in Democratic primaries—and overwhelmingly against Black and brown progressives who support a permanent ceasefire in Gaza to stop Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people.

The GOP megadonor-funded group also endorsed 109 Republican candidates who pushed the Big Lie and refused to certify the 2020 presidential election results, driving the January 6 insurrection on the U.S. Capitol.

In 2024, AIPAC is trying to tighten its grip on Congress by attacking progressive incumbents and influencing Democratic primaries. But our movement is coming together to stop them.

Now is the time to Reject AIPAC once and for all. Add your name to strengthen our call to the Democratic Party.

Recently Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer called for new elections in Israel to remove the Netanyahu coalition, but make no mistake: Israel is a deeply racist, genocidal apartheid state no matter who is in power. We can’t allow the anti-Palestinian lobby to keep fueling this massive violence.

Thank you for taking action to reject AIPAC and fight for Palestinian human rights.

Ahmad Abuznaid is the Executive Director of USCPR Action.
