About AIPAC

AIPAC — the American Israel Public Affairs Committee — is a tax-exempt 501(c)(4) non-profit group that lobbies for strong U.S.-Israel relations and pro-Israel policies.

AIPAC’s board members are listed here (pages 7-8). These are some of the infamous AIPAC “babysitters” that roam the halls of Congress and twist the arms of our elected officials.

AIPAC PAC is the group’s political action committee used to raise funds and directly contribute to candidates who align with their pro-Israel agenda.

In short, AIPAC focuses on lobbying and advocacy, while AIPAC PAC focuses on direct financial support for political candidates.

United Democracy Project (UDP) is AIPAC’s affiliated Super PAC. Unlike traditional PACs, Super PACs can raise and spend unlimited amounts of money to influence elections, but they are prohibited from coordinating directly with candidates or campaigns.

UDP focuses on independent expenditures, such as advertising and voter outreach, to promote pro-Israel candidates.

The American Israel Education Foundation (AIEF) is a nonprofit organization affiliated with AIPAC. It is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, meaning donations to it are tax-deductible.

AIEF organizes educational trips to Israel for members of Congress, their staff, and other influential individuals, to feed them propaganda about Israel's strategic, political, and cultural landscape.
