Amid political tensions surrounding Israel’s handling of the war with Hamas, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib has voiced her support for colleagues facing backlash for their stance.

The “Protect the Squad” campaign is hoping to raise $100 million in an effort to stand up to rival race runners supported and funded by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC. Tlaib’s statements on Israel come as part of a broader discussion about the influence of organizations like AIPAC on lawmakers critical of Israel’s policies.

“”Please join me in supporting my colleagues that are standing up. They’re getting attacked right now, calls into their offices. They need to hear from the American people who know this is the answer to try to get a peace-loving solution to the violence.”

AIPAC and GOP megadonors plan to spend $100 million on campaigns targeting established progressives like Tlaib, Cori Bush in Missouri, and Ilhan Omar in Minnesota.

The “Squad” is rallying to counter this by raising funds by April 30, timed for primary races against their AIPAC-backed opponents.
