It's not partisan.
It it supports both parties and it has a single focus.
Which is this strong partnership between the United States and Israel.
For decades it did not give money to candidates, it wasn't airing ads, it had no super PAC, it had no PAC.
There was a big shift on that ahead of the 2022 cycle.
APAC decided to form a PAC, a super PAC, which is called the United Democracy Project, um, to start spending in elections.
And this was a massive change for the organization.
Well, UDP the Super PAC, it spent thirty million dollars in that Michigan Senate uh race that you were describing, the primary.
Its preferred candidate, Congresswoman Haley Stevens, uh, did not win.
The progressive challenger, Abdul El Sayed, did.
And if we look at it over time, I mean, this is really just I mean, we we throw numbers out there in like the twenty twenty two cycle.
This is the third cycle, you know, so this is still like fairly new.
Uh the super PAC spending in
2022 was 26 million.
Uh, it jumped to about 38 million in 24, and then UDP and its affiliated groups, this cycle over 62 million so far, and counting, presumably.
Um and there are instances, you know, for example, in Illinois where super PACs affiliated with UDP have popped up.
One was called like elect Chicago women.
This is not uncommon in the world of super PACs, like often a
national super pack will set up affiliated super PACs.
Um the national conversation I think at this moment sounds very much like APAC is the biggest spender and it has this like outsized influence.
