The Zionist lobby AIPAC has informed its members that it will cease public endorsements of candidates in U.S. elections and halt direct contributions from its political action committee. This decision marks the end of a mechanism where donations were officially registered under the organization's name, which had become a political liability for candidates. The move followed pressure from activists and led some Democratic lawmakers to refuse the funds to avoid harming their electoral prospects. AIPAC stated the decision was made after a "strategic review." Moving forward, the organization will focus on encouraging direct donations from individual citizens, bypassing the official AIPAC stamp.
