Aaron Ford
Aaron Ford is Nevada's Democratic Attorney General and the party's 2026 general-election nominee for governor. His record on the site's issue is pro-Israel and includes an announced pledge of material support. On October 10, 2023 he joined a bipartisan coalition of 14 attorneys general in a joint statement condemning Hamas's attacks and grieving 'with our Israeli siblings.' On November 6, 2023, at an event marking 30 days of support for Israel, Ford announced that his office's investigators had 'accumulated tactical gear that we will be sending to the IDF' (Israel Defense Forces) — an unusual pledge by a state attorney general's office to send equipment to the Israeli military. That account rests on a single partisan outlet (The Nevada Globe); the quote is verbatim and directly attributed to Ford, but no independent corroboration was found and the source establishes only that gear was accumulated and would be sent, not that it was ultimately delivered, so the action is treated as UNCERTAIN. As Attorney General, Ford heads the state's legal enforcement in a state whose law (NRS 333.338, enacted 2017) bars state contracts with companies that boycott Israel; no statement was found of Ford personally defending, promoting, or criticizing that anti-boycott law, or addressing conditioning of U.S. weapons or money to Israel. No Gaza-leverage or UNRWA position was found.
