Dear Friend of Israel,
AIPAC membership is more than a one-time gift -- it's an investment.
It's an investment to help keep Israel safe today, tomorrow and for years to come. And you can take pride in knowing that this investment continues to yield important returns.
This year alone, your support is helped us work with Congress to secure more than $500 million for lifesaving missile defense programs like Iron Dome as well as $25 million to help Israel counter the threat from attack drones. This is in addition to $3.3 billion in annual security assistance to Israel.
Congress also stood with Israel against discrimination from the International Criminal Court in a bipartisan letter in the Senate that condemned the ICC’s baseless investigation into alleged Israeli "war crimes."
And Congress overwhelmingly backed continued U.S. aid to Israel without preconditions in a letter signed by 331 members of the House. The bipartisan letter cited President Biden, who said cuts or additional conditions on aid to Israel would be "irresponsible," "outrageous," and a "gigantic mistake."
Each of these important bipartisan initiatives strengthens and expands the U.S.-Israel relationship…which helps keep Israelis safe. But our work with Congress would not happen without the investment and support from AIPAC members like you.

That is why I hope you will act today to show your support of AIPAC's work by joining before our August fundraising deadline.
Our work together is essential, especially as the Middle East remains unstable and our political climate at home is increasingly partisan.
In the weeks and months ahead, we must be ready to work with Congress to:
- Stand against the growing danger from Iran by increasing pressure on Iran to end its illicit funding of terrorism and its pursuit of nuclear weapons.
- Maintain and expand America’s commitment to Israel’s security by supporting full funding for security assistance to Israel for fiscal year 2022—$3.3 billion—as well as an additional $500 million for U.S.-Israel missile defense cooperation.
- Support and expand peace agreements between Israel and the Arab and Muslim world, through passage of The Israel Relations Normalization Act of 2021.
- Defend Israel from malicious economic attacks. Efforts at the United Nations and elsewhere increasingly seek to delegitimize and isolate Israel. These pernicious efforts, such as boycotts, divestments and sanctions, unfairly target the Jewish state.Your investment helps make this work possible.
If you support a safe and secure Israel, and if you believe in the importance of a strong U.S.-Israel alliance, then one of the most important things you can do is invest in the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
