Mary Miller
No statement since January 2024 was located from Miller on U.S. weapons or money for Israel's government, or on U.S. aid to Palestinians (source-checked research). Her located actions since have been about territory and immigration rather than about aid.
Miller represents Illinois's 15th District in eastern and southern Illinois and is running for re-election.
Since then her located actions have been about territory and immigration rather than aid: she co-sponsored a two-year moratorium on immigration from the Palestinian Authority in June 2024, and signed a letter in February 2025 endorsing recognition of the West Bank as Israeli territory. In June 2025 she praised U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear targets as "A great victory for the United States!"

Research
U.S. military aid and weapons to Israel
- No position-band statement (2024-01-26 or later) located on U.S. weapons or funding for the government of Israel.
- Her recorded votes on the tracked bills appear as badges on this card and are consistently for the aid packages and against the cuts.
U.S. aid to Palestinians
- [After October 7, 2023-10-19] Her statement, opened and confirmed word for word: "Biden is also sending $100 million to Gaza, which is controlled by the Hamas terrorists who killed American and Israeli citizens. His plan is to fund both sides of the war in Israel. He still hasn't frozen the $6 billion he released for Iran, and by attacking American domestic energy production, Biden has made Iran richer than they could have possibly imagined." And: "I stand in support of Israel and will continue to pray for both Israel and the successful rescue of all who were captured." From the weeks right after October 7; never on a card, and this is her most concrete in-scope statement.
- [After October 7, 2023-10-17] Signed a joint letter organized by Advancing American Freedom with more than sixty conservative leaders arguing that "not one American taxpayer dollar should flow to or underwrite any Palestinian entity or person." Confirmed that the letter names her. From the weeks right after October 7, and a multi-signatory document rather than her own wording.
Characterization of the conflict
- [Position, 2024-06-05] Co-sponsored the Guarding American Zones Against Palestinian Immigration Act, a two-year moratorium on immigration from the Palestinian Authority. Immigration policy rather than what the United States sends; recorded here.
- [Position, February 2025] Signed a letter endorsing recognition of the West Bank as Israeli territory, as reported; cource not located.
- [Position, 2025-06-21] Praised U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear targets on X as "A great victory for the United States!" and said "PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH keeps America, and the world, safe and secure" (Illinois Public Media roundup, CBS Chicago). About Iran, not about what the U.S. sends into this conflict.
- [After October 7, 2023-10-19] Praised the Abraham Accords as "historic peace in the Middle East" while calling the administration's foreign policy responsible for setting "the world on fire" (same statement, confirmed).
- [After October 7, 2023-10-20] Local coverage of her criticism of the President's address.
Related rhetoric and lobbying
- [Earlier record, 2021-01-05] At a Washington rally she said "Hitler was right on one thing: He said, whoever has the youth has the future," drew bipartisan condemnation, and issued a clarification. Recorded because the research returned it; it is not a statement about U.S. aid and does not appear on the card.
Safety and antisemitism (context)
- [After October 7, 2023-10-23] Signed a joint letter to the Department of Justice urging investigation of pro-Hamas activity on university campuses and in U.S. cities.
