AIPAC Israel Lobby Spending $3.4M on Rep Since 2016 Fact Check
“AIPAC and the Israel lobby have spent $3.4 million supporting the representative since he was elected in 2016.”

Moreover, most lawmakers represent districts with very few Jewish or Arab American constituents to pressure them on votes, and there is virtually no pro-Palestine lobby to counterweight, Mearsheimer noted.
