WASHINGTON (TNND) — The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) said Wednesday that over 234 pro-Israel Democrats and Republicans won their elections in the midterms.
“AIPAC congratulates the hundreds of pro-Israel Democrats and Republicans who won their elections last night. More than 234 candidates supported by AIPAC members have already won, with many additional races still too close to call,” the lobbying group wrote in a post on X.
The group went on to congratulate Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-Ny) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-Ny) for the Democratic victories in both the House and Senate.
The Democrats took control of the House and the Senate in the midterm elections.
“AIPAC members are determined to expand their political activism in the cycles ahead,” the group’s post concluded. “Our community will increase its support for Democrats and Republicans who recognize that a strong partnership with Israel helps keep both countries secure, advances peace and stability, promotes democratic values, and grows our economy through trade and innovation.”
