AIPAC PAC

Representing the northern Central Valley of the Golden State over 11 terms, Rep. Jim Costa has been a leader on the U.S.-Israel relationship. After the barbaric attacks of October 7th, Costa cosponsored and voted for legislation backing Israel and affirming its right to self-defense while condemning Hamas and its barbaric attack on the Jewish state. Costa also stated: “The unprovoked attack on Israel by Hamas is an act of war on one of our most trusted and long-term allies in the Middle East. We join with the Israeli people in support of their defense to maintain their independence, sovereignty, and freedoms that we share in common.” The Californian backed supplemental security assistance for the Jewish state, and cosponsored and voted for bills that sanction foreign ports and refineries that process Iranian petroleum and extend restrictions on Iran’s ballistic missile program. He also signed a letter endorsing continued security assistance to Israel without additional conditions. In addition, Costa was a signatory on a letter advocating for the administration to reject the ICC’s politically driven probes of Israel and backed a resolution rejecting the BDS campaign. Costa traveled to Israel with AIPAC’s sister foundation in 2015.
