AIPAC has spent a record amount on Michigan's Senate primary, the biggest test of its influence yet

AIPAC and affiliated groups have poured nearly $30 million — their biggest single‑race investment — into boosting Haley Stevens, though she rarely mentions the group publicly.
Challenger Abdul El‑Sayed is pitching a “many vs. money” grassroots surge (he’s recruited 10,000+ volunteers) against heavy outside spending supporting Stevens.
The Israel‑Gaza war has split Michigan Democrats, making candidates’ stances on Israel and AIPAC’s role a central, contentious theme in the primary.
