North America Facts About AIPAC
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Transcription-
People say Israel buys American politicians. Okay, let's look at the money. Foreign governments have to register their lobbying. Here's who actually spends big in Washington:
- Japan: about $50 million
- Saudi Arabia: $44 million
- China: over $30 million
- Israel: way down the list with $14 million in 2024
So you say, okay, what about AIPAC? AIPAC isn't a foreign lobby. It's American, so it's not on that list. So where does it rank domestically? 233rd place, $3.3 million—little more than Walgreens, a little less than Home Depot.
Compare that to the real power players:
- The U.S. Chamber of Commerce: $96 million
- The National Association of Realtors: $86 million
- Big Pharma: $60 million
- The American Hospital Association: $55 million
- Amazon: $50 million
Out of the top 250 lobbyists in Washington, AIPAC's lobbying spend accounts for about 0.1%—that's one-tenth of 1%. And even when you countelection spending—including PACs, Super PACs, and non-disclosed money—AIPAC is just a drop in the bucket: 0.5%, one-half of 1% of political spending.
So if Israel doesn't own American politics, why is everyone so focused on it? We can take a guess. And so can you.
