    in backing from AIPAC, UDP & allied PACs

    $351K via AIPAC PAC ($326K in earmarked donations from AIPAC’s donors that it passed on, $25K from the PAC itself) + $9,000 from other PACs

    • Voting score 66% (18 votes, average of 3 areas)

    66%Voting score on Israel, war powers & civil liberties: the three areas averaged equally; 100% = the scored vote every time
    88%Second score: immigration & Wall Street
    $712Kgiven directly by 332 people who also gave to AIPAC PAC or UDP
    1%of campaign money from small donors

    How the 66% is calculated: the equal-weight average of Israel & Gaza 43% (7 votes), Speech & civil liberties 56% (8 votes), War powers 100% (3 votes). Higher means more often casting the scored vote: against military aid to Israel without new conditions and against ICC sanctions, for blocking arms sales, for requiring Congress to authorize war, and for civil liberties. Each area (Israel & Gaza, war powers, speech & civil liberties) counts equally, so the score is an average of areas, not the share of all listed votes.
