Deep Dive
Biggs has represented South Carolina’s 3rd District since January 2025. Her two recorded votes appear as badges on this card: No on the amendment to cut $500 million for Israeli missile-defense programs, No on the 2026 amendment to cut $3.3 billion from aid to Israel.
Her June 2025 statement during the Israel-Iran conflict, on her own site, frames the alliance in covenant terms: "By standing with Israel, we affirm that covenant. We affirm her right to exist, to defend herself, and to live in peace"; the statement’s Iran material sits on the research page.
In December 2025 she signed Rep. Tenney’s letter asking Treasury to review Spain’s Israel arms-trade restrictions under the tax code’s anti-boycott provision, verified with her in the signer list. In 2025 she spoke at an upstate "A Night to Honor Israel" church event, presenting Israel advocacy as core to her platform; the source is her own Facebook video, not yet confirmed. Tracked bill sponsorships on terrorism and antisemitism resolutions appear on the research page on tracker basis. AIPAC’s tracked support appears as a badge on this card.

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.)
