Deep Dive
Jack represents Georgia's 3rd District, elected in 2024, and is running for re-election.
His position dates from his primary campaign. At an Atlanta Press Club debate in May 2024 the coverage records that all five candidates on the stage backed increased U.S. financial support for Israel in its conflict with Hamas. That is the collective wording, it does not say military assistance, and nothing narrower is attributed to him alone.
In June 2025, after joint operations against Iranian nuclear facilities, he issued a statement supporting U.S. forces and the President and framing the alignment as essential to protecting both U.S. national security and Israel from a nuclear-armed Iran. That is about Iran rather than about what the United States sends into this conflict.
In August 2025 he took part in a delegation trip to Israel organised by the American Israel Education Foundation, covering Tel Aviv, the West Bank and areas near the Gaza border; the trip appears in his travel disclosures.
He took office after most of the tracked roll calls, so his card carries two badges. No statement from him about either was located, and nothing was located on U.S. aid to Palestinians. The debate source was not opened, so his position is stated attributively rather than quoted.
The record
Supported sending weapons or funding in 2 of 2 tracked votes
How this mark works
We track key votes on sending U.S. weapons and money to the government of Israel. A check means every tracked vote they cast came down against sending more, on the side of peace and de-escalation. A question mark means a mixed record: they sided with sending up to half of the time. An X means they voted to send more weapons and money in over half of their tracked votes, even as the way those weapons and dollars were being used became more and more obvious. At exactly half, money this election cycle from a lobbying group we track, or an endorsement from a group that backs sending weapons, makes it an X. Only votes actually cast are counted. Where a candidate has no recorded votes on these bills, the mark comes instead from a reviewed reading of their public record (money from the lobbying groups we track, endorsements, and their own words since January 26, 2024). There an X also covers fully backing the conduct of the war by the government of Israel without significant reservations, and a question mark also covers speaking about Israel without saying clearly where they stand on U.S. weapons and funding. A dash means No Position Found: we found nothing in their own words about Israel, Gaza or the war.
See a dash? Ask the candidate where they stand, then send us their answer and we'll review it and update the mark. Or volunteer to help review candidates.
Voted to send weapons or funding in more than half of their recorded tracked votes. (Supported sending weapons or funding in 2 of 2 tracked votes.)
