I am Green running for Arizona's Congressional District 1.

The Israeli government is well able to fund the Iron Dome system, which has proven critical to keep innocent civilians safe from rocket attacks and bombardment. Consistent with my voting record to date, I will not support Congress sending more taxpayer dollars and military aid to a government that consistently ignores international law and U.S. law. Netanyahu’s allies in the Knesset just approved a $45 billion defense budget, and the Prime Minister himself also asserted his interest in withdrawing from the MOU with the United States in January. It is fully within their ability to fund Iron Dome and other defensive systems. Our allies who need our military aid must understand that we will provide it consistent with the Leahy amendment and the foreign assistance act.

















I want to express my deepest solidarity with AOC for taking the morally principled stance, listening to her constituents & her base, and committing to vote against all military funding for Israel. NYC-DSA & @AOC have built a relationship of mutuality & solidarity. Not easy!








🔴 NEW: AOC commits to oppose all U.S. arms funding for Israel Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she would vote against “any spending on arms for Israel, including so-called defensive capabilities,” during an NYC-DSA candidate forum, according to Peter Sterne, editor at City & State NY. A leading Democratic progressive, she is believed to be a potential contender for the party’s 2028 presidential nomination.




BREAKING: At tonight’s NYC-DSA electoral forum, @AOC committed to voting against “any spending on arms for Israel, including so-called defensive capabilities.”

In a time of rapidly rising antisemitism, AOC committing to vote against a designation that broad swaths of the Jewish community support is gross.
