AIPAC Rebuilds Its Electoral Model After Three PAC Cycles

AIPAC is ending candidate endorsements and direct PAC contributions after three election cycles, while retaining its super PAC and shifting toward organized individual giving. The change redraws the most visible part of the pro-Israel electoral infrastructure without signaling a retreat from political spending.

Also tracking: a House committee report describes systemic antisemitism in Philadelphia and Berkeley schools; Jewish legal groups are pressing Washington to enforce U.S. antiboycott law against European settlement sanctions; and the West Bank is becoming a campaign-stage destination for American politicians.

In the wire: New York police are investigating the stabbing of a visibly Jewish man as a possible hate crime, Minnesota Democrats are widening their condemnation of a Hasan Piker event, and Sen. Rick Scott is arguing that Israel is a model for “America First” alliances.
