J Street to spend $3 million against congressional candidates it calls ‘AIPAC-backed MAGA extremists’

J Street's Action Fund Super PAC announced a $3 million spending plan to oppose congressional candidates it labels “AIPAC-backed MAGA extremists.” This marks the first time the group, which has stated it is “persuaded” that Israel is committing “genocide,” will go “on offense against AIPAC-backed incumbents in a significant number of competitive congressional races.” The targeted representatives include Mike Collins (R-Ga.), Max Miller (R-Ohio), Derrick Van Orden (R-Wis.), Ryan Mackenzie (R-Pa.), and Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-Iowa). J Street's Vice President of Political and Digital Strategy, Tali deGroot, stated, “J Street Action Fund’s investment in these targeted races represents the views of a majority of Jewish Americans.” This $3 million investment is the largest Super PAC expenditure in J Street's history, contributing to a total of $7 million in support for congressional candidates this cycle.
