Seth Moulton
Moulton's record on U.S. money and weapons for the government of Israel is a House record (MA-06, 118th and 119th Congresses) that moved sharply over three years. On November 2, 2023 he voted Nay on H.R. 6126, the standalone Israel supplemental offset by IRS cuts (Roll 577, passed 226-196), and said the next day that he supported Israel aid but objected to the Speaker's "'offset' of $14.3 billion in cuts to the IRS" and to the exclusion of humanitarian funding for Gazans. On February 6, 2024 he voted Nay on H.R. 7217, a second standalone Israel Security Supplemental (Roll 38, failed 250-180 under suspension). On April 20, 2024 he voted Yea on H.R. 8034, the Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024 (Roll 152, passed 366-58). On May 16, 2024 he voted Nay on H.R. 8369, the Israel Security Assistance Support Act, which would have restricted the executive from withholding arms deliveries (Roll 217, passed 224-187); Jewish Insider reported that after a May 2024 meeting with then-Israeli Ambassador Michael Herzog he opposed a full-scale Rafah operation and backed President Biden's threat to withhold weapons if Israel proceeded. On July 18, 2025 he voted No on the Greene of Georgia amendment to H.R. 4016 (Roll 207, failed 6-422), which would have cut Israeli missile-defense funding. On July 30, 2025 he issued a statement calling Gaza's hunger crisis 'an avoidable human tragedy' and 'a moral imperative for the Netanyahu government to alleviate.' On October 16, 2025, the day after launching his Senate campaign, he announced he would take no further AIPAC money and return roughly $35,000 already received, saying he is 'a friend of Israel, but not of its current government'; The Hill reported AIPAC had been his top contributor over the previous two cycles at $42,850 including $10,000 from the committee itself. On July 15, 2026 he voted Aye on Rep. Thomas Massie's amendment to H.R. 8595 to strip $3.3 billion in Foreign Military Financing for Israel from the FY2027 National Security-State appropriations bill (Roll 243, failed 104-314 with 10 present; Democrats split 103 aye / 98 no / 10 present, Massie the only Republican aye), publishing a vote explainer that said 'continuing unconditional assistance would be condoning an unacceptable status quo' while noting the amendment preserved Iron Dome funding. At the June 16, 2026 WBZ debate with Republican John Deaton he advocated conditional aid to Israel on the same terms as any other country, said defensive aid remains important, and backed a two-state solution; at that debate he also denied reporting by Jewish Insider, cited in Boston.com's debate coverage, that he had sought AIPAC's endorsement before turning against the group.
