Israel lobby in the United States

AIPAC is an American grassroots organization that works to strengthen the U.S.-Israel partnership. Our mission is to encourage and persuade the U.S. government to enact specific policies that create a strong, enduring and mutually beneficial relationship with our ally Israel. AIPAC members are American citizens who care deeply about strengthening the U.S.-Israel relationship. We have more than 6.5 million members nationwide of different faiths, backgrounds, and political affiliations. AIPAC's decisions are made by its Board of Directors, all of whom are American citizens. No, AIPAC's members are Democrats and Republicans. We support pro-Israel candidates on both sides of the aisle and oppose anti-Israel candidates on both sides, as well. Millions of lifelong Democrats and Republicans are AIPAC members. AIPAC has more than 6.5 million members, including small-dollar contributors and major donors from all backgrounds, faiths and parties. Voters control elections. We help pro-Israel candidates get their message out by supporting their campaigns. AIPAC helps pro-Israel candidates no matter their race, religion or background, and opposes anti-Israel candidates no matter their race, religion or background. Our members are also the top supporters of the Black Caucus, the Hispanic Caucus, the Progressive Caucus and the Asian Pacific Islander Caucus. Does AIPAC lobby for unconditional aid to Israel? Does AIPAC support a blank check for the Israeli government? No. There is no such thing as unconditional aid to Israel or a blank check for Israel. How Israel can utilize U.S. security assistance, like all countries, is governed by U.S. law and conditions. We support full funding of the 10-year agreement signed by the Obama administration that includes annual funding for security assistance and cooperative programs like Iron Dome. The mission of AIPAC is to encourage and persuade the U.S. government to enact specific policies that create a strong, enduring and mutually beneficial relationship with our ally Israel.
