AIPAC to end candidate endorsements, PAC contributions to allies | 21 Oct 2026 | AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) announced on Wednesday that, after three cycles of direct political involvement through its political action committee AIPAC PAC, it will no longer issue endorsements or directly earmark contributions to candidates, but said it will remain involved in political organizing and fundraising in other ways, including with its influential super PAC. The decision is a striking turnabout just five years after the group first launched its PAC and super PAC and began directly endorsing and fundraising for candidates. The United Democracy Project super PAC, which launched alongside AIPAC’s PAC in 2021 and has spent tens of millions across numerous races, will continue its engagement. Previously, earmarked donations made to candidates through AIPAC’s portal would show up on candidates’ fundraising reports as donated by the individual through AIPAC.
