By working with AIPAC, you help ensure that the United States and Israel stand together to combat these threats ― both now and in the future.
Together, we will work with Congress to ensure that the United States supports Israel with critical security assistance needed to keep its citizens safe.
Together, we will urge Congress to ensure America continues to stand with Israel as it fights to destroy Hamas' capabilities and free the remaining hostages still in captivity.
Together, we will urge Congress to oppose any effort to block arms that Israel needs to deter, defend against, and confront Iran and the regime’s terror proxies.
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.
