The PAC of pro-Israel group AIPAC has funneled $45.9 million to members of Congress, their caucus PACs, and federal candidates this election cycle, according to a Sludge review of its most recent FEC filing, covering activity through July 31.
AIPAC is on pace to surpass its PAC giving from the 2024 cycle and is, by far, the top-contributing conduit PAC among groups that endorse federal candidates. The sum is overwhelmingly composed of earmarked contributions from U.S.-based individuals to members of Congress. Giving is particularly focused on lawmakers on the House and Senate Defense and Appropriations committees, which AIPAC lobbies on issues including billions of dollars in annual military aid and deeper defense policy coordination.
