(AP Photo\/J. Scott Applewhite)<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<p>A<b> <\/b>striking number of House Democrats \u2014 103 \u2014 voted Wednesday to cut off military aid to Israel for the next fiscal year, in a sign of the growing disconnect between the Democratic leadership\u2019s long-standing support for the Jewish state and the party\u2019s left wing.<\/p>\n<p>The vote was on a largely symbolic amendment introduced by Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Kentucky) to an appropriations package for the State Department<b> <\/b>and other national security agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the considerable Democratic support, the amendment<b> <\/b>failed in the House. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-New York) voted against it.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the large support for the amendment comes amid a sharp shift among Democratic voters on Israel. A number of Democrats who have voiced support for Israel voted for the amendment<b> <\/b>Reps. Seth Moulton (D-Massachusetts), Lauren Underwood (D-Illinois) and Katherine Clark (D-Massachusetts), the minority whip.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement, Clark \u2014 the No. 2 House Democrat \u2014 said, \u201cthe status quo is not tenable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added: \u201cWe should not provide a blank check for military aid to any country that does not comply with U.S. law, interests, and values. The Netanyahu government has failed to meet that standard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Public support for Israel has plummeted over the country\u2019s military campaigns in Gaza and Lebanon, particularly among Democrats. Nearly three-quarters of Democrats want to reduce or end military support for Israel, according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/tablet\/2026\/07\/15\/july-8-13-2026-washington-post-ipsos-poll\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/tablet\/2026\/07\/15\/july-8-13-2026-washington-post-ipsos-poll\/\">Washington Post-Ipsos poll<\/a> conducted July 8-13. Forty percent of Democrats want to eliminate military support to Israel entirely, including 58 percent of \u201cvery liberal\u201d Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>Views have shifted dramatically in recent years. Shortly after the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attacks on Israel, 28 percent of Democratic registered voters felt the U.S. was too supportive of Israel, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/poll.qu.edu\/poll-release?releaseid=3961\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\/\/poll.qu.edu\/poll-release?releaseid=3961\">polling by Quinnipiac University<\/a>. That rose to 41 percent by early 2024 and to 66 percent last month, including clear majorities of older and younger Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>Rahm Emanuel, a potential Democratic presidential candidate and former top adviser to Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2026\/07\/08\/emanuel-says-israeli-prime-minister-has-led-hiss-country-dead-end\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2026\/07\/08\/emanuel-says-israeli-prime-minister-has-led-hiss-country-dead-end\/\">recently traveled to Tel Aviv<\/a> to warn Israelis that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had led the country toward dangerous diplomatic isolation.<\/p>\n<p>Emanuel said U.S. support for Israel was \u201cplummeting around the world\u201d and argued that the United States should end \u201cthe American taxpayer\u2019s subsidy of Israel\u2019s defense budget.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jeffries has resisted calls from the base to end all aid to Israel\u2019s government, balancing the priorities of his Democratic members who have stood by the U.S.-Israel relationship. He wrote in a Monday letter to his fellow Democrats that he would be voting against the measure, saying it is too broad.<\/p>\n<p>But Jeffries said \u201cgiven the strongly held views throughout the Caucus,\u201d he would let members vote their conscience on the measure.<\/p>\n<p>Progressive candidates have cast the divide as evidence that the Democratic establishment is misaligned with its own voters \u2014 not only on the war in Gaza, but also on money in politics and the use of U.S. tax dollars abroad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Democratic Party has been out of step with its own base on Gaza and Palestinian human rights for years. People in this country can\u2019t afford rent, groceries, or a doctor\u2019s visit \u2014 and instead of fighting for them, our politicians are sending billions to fund a genocide,\u201d said Darializa Avila Chevalier, a democratic socialist candidate who won a competitive New York primary last month.<\/p>\n<p>The strategy has had several notable successes.<\/p>\n<p>In New York, three vocal leftist critics of Israel including Avila Chevalier handily<b> <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2026\/06\/25\/democratic-socialists-new-york-expanded-their-voting-base-claim-victory\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2026\/06\/25\/democratic-socialists-new-york-expanded-their-voting-base-claim-victory\/\">won their primaries<\/a>, including one in which support for Israel became a central distinction with the moderate incumbent.

It didn\u2019t go well.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>But several progressives have still<b> <\/b>demanded a stronger stance on the issue than Jeffries\u2019s attempts to balance the positions of the caucus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Democratic voting base and the American voting base have shifted here,\u201d said Brad Lander, who won a competitive New York primary against Rep. Dan Goldman, a longtime supporter of Israel. \u201cI do believe that the Democratic Party leadership is going to have to catch up.\u201d Lander, like Goldman, is Jewish and supports a two-state solution but differed from Goldman in labeling Israel\u2019s actions in Gaza a genocide.<\/p>\n<p>The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, the preeminent pro-Israel lobbying group, has become a particular target on the left, held up as an example of what progressives call the corrupting influence of money in politics. Progressive candidates regularly criticize moderate candidates who benefit from spending by AIPAC-affiliated groups, asserting the group\u2019s campaign funding pushes candidates away from the party base\u2019s stance on Israel. AIPAC\u2019s political network supports pro-Israel Democrats and Republicans, including all of the top members of House Democratic leadership.<\/p>\n<p>El-Sayed has accused his opponent, Rep. Haley Stevens, of failing to adequately condemn the actions of the Israeli government because of what he says is the influence of the pro-Israel lobby. A super PAC affiliated with AIPAC has poured more than $20 million into boosting Stevens.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHer entire campaign is bankrolled by outside organizations who know that they\u2019re going to buy a reliable vote to send our tax dollars elsewhere instead of solving actual problems here in Michigan,\u201d El-Sayed said.<\/p>\n<p>Stevens is a longtime supporter of Israel, though she has also criticized the government\u2019s handling of the war in Gaza and said Israel\u2019s actions have made Jews around the world less safe. During a debate this month, she said she was the only candidate who truly advocated for the creation of a Palestinian state alongside Israel.<b> <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Stevens\u2019s campaign responded that El-Sayed was \u201cpeddling in conspiracy theories\u201d by asserting she was working at the behest of AIPAC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaley has always believed this race is about the future of Michigan, and that\u2019s why her focus is and has been on promoting policies that will reduce costs, grow the economy and create a strong 21st century manufacturing industry that will carry Michigan forward,\u201d her campaign said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Patrick Dorton, a spokesperson for AIPAC\u2019s super PAC, said the group has the right to partake in the primary process like any other interest group and noted that super PACs have also been spending heavily to back candidates opposed to the U.S.-Israel relationship.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe anti-Israel fringe left uses the dark money argument when it suits them and funds super PACs when it\u2019s to their advantage,\u201d Dorton said. \u201cThese are red herring arguments to drive pro-Israel Democrats out of the party and out of the primary process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Deryn Sousa, a spokesperson for AIPAC, said that the organization\u2019s membership crosses party lines and the group supports candidates based on their alignment with its support for the U.S.-Israel relationship. Hundreds of AIPAC-backed candidates have won their primaries this year, Sousa noted.<\/p>\n<p>Israel still has its ardent defenders among congressional Democrats, several of whom argue that the growing number of vocal Israel critics fails to grasp the reality on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWar is terrible, and it\u2019s very hard to be successful in an urban war and successful in the public relations war,\u201d said Rep. Brad Sherman (D-California), a longtime supporter of Israel and co-chair of the Israel Allies Caucus.<\/p>\n<p>Sherman said he and most other Democrats have been able to criticize the government of Israel without going after the U.S.-Israel relationship, one of the strongest partnerships in the Middle East. He warned that some of the criticism has amounted to demonization and antisemitism.<\/p>\n<p>And even among the progressive candidates criticizing the party\u2019s stance toward Israel, there is disagreement on the future of the relationship with Jerusalem. While Lander identifies himself as a Zionist, El-Sayed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2026\/07\/07\/politics\/israel-democrats-antisemitism-concerns\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2026\/07\/07\/politics\/israel-democrats-antisemitism-concerns\">said liberal democracy was incompatible<\/a> with the idea of a Jewish state.<\/p>\n<p>The next House Democratic Caucus is likely to include an unusually large number of members openly critical of Israel. Still, foundational disagreements over Israel are nothing new to the caucus.<\/p>\n<p>Sherman recalled a pushback on similar criticisms against Israel in the 1980s, when the country invaded Lebanon, though he noted the resistance to Israel is greater now among Democrats than then. He was a founding leader at the time of Democrats for Israel, a grassroots group dedicated to rooting out anti-Israel sentiment in the party.<\/p>\n<p>Avila Chevalier said she would work with anyone \u201cserious about lowering the cost of living working-class people\u201d regardless of their stances on Israel.<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Bradley Schneider (D-Illinois), a moderate who is largely supportive of the U.S.-Israel relationship, noted Israel critics already serve in the Democratic Caucus and that he is still able to work with them on other issues, including health care, housing and education.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/movinginsiderusa.com\/?p=7582\">What\u2019s happening with ICE right now<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemocrats are a big tent,\u201d Schneider said. \u201cWe welcome diverse opinions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>Mariana Alfaro and Scott Clement contributed reporting.<\/i><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The symbolic vote showed how far Democratic politics on Israel have shifted, as progressive candidates turn anger over Gaza and U.S. military aid into a campaign issue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7589,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7592","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interesting"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
