AIPAC OWNS 525 MEMBERS OF USA CONGRESS
For full donor data, check OpenSecrets or TrackAIPAC.
"Out of 535 members of Congress, only 10 of them reject AIPAC money" and 525 or 98.2% accept it and prioritize Israel's interests.
Percentage: If 12 members received $0, that's ~97.6% (521/535) who have accepted funds at some point—not 98.2%.
Total Members: The 119th Congress (seated January 2025) has 535 members (100 Senators, 435 Representatives), as stated.
The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and its PAC spent over $51 million on direct contributions and $37.8 million in outside spending during the 2024 election cycle, supporting 361 candidates (mostly incumbents who won).
TrackAIPAC data indicates 81 members (15%) have AIPAC as their top all-time donor, but nearly all others have received smaller amounts.
Number Who "Reject" AIPAC:
As of mid-2025, 13 members of Congress (or recent candidates) have publicly pledged to reject AIPAC funding via the "Reject AIPAC" coalition. However, two (Reps. Jamaal Bowman and Cori Bush) lost their 2024 primaries (partly due to AIPAC opposition spending), leaving 11 current members in the 119th Congress:
Reps. Greg Casar (D-TX),
Pramila Jayapal (D-WA),
Summer Lee (D-PA),
Ilhan Omar (D-MN),
Mark Pocan (D-WI),
Ayanna Pressley (D-MA),
Delia Ramirez (D-IL),
Rashida Tlaib (D-MI),
Nydia Velázquez (D-NY),
Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
plus at least one Republican (Rep. Thomas Massie, R-KY, a consistent critic of foreign aid).
Recipients are "paid to prioritize Israel's interests, first before (USA) yours, second".
AIPAC is a "legal lobby" like many others. 'Contributions' do not "legally bind votes".
AIPAC MONEY is "paid to prioritize Israel's interests, first then USA's interests, second" else no further
'Contributions' to 'Recipients'.
