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.

No recorded votes on the bills we track. We found nothing in their own words about Israel, Gaza or the war.

Deep Dive

6 sources checked and read, every one listed on the research page. Most candidates at this level have simply never been asked.

You are better placed to change that than we are. Ask Fierro directly, or at a candidate forum, and send us the reply: it goes on this page in their own words, which is worth more than anything we could write about them.

Research log

The notes behind this card: what we looked at, what we found, and where each item came from.

What was looked for, and what came back

  • **U.S. military aid and weapons to Israel:** There is no public record or documented campaign stance from Martha Fierro regarding U.S. military aid or weapons sales to Israel.
  • **Characterization of the conflict:** There is no public record of direct statements or official campaign materials from Martha Fierro personalizing or characterizing the broader Israel/Palestine conflict.
  • **Rhetoric and lobbying:** In her capacity as Director of Texas Rotunda Prayer & Worship, Martha Fierro participated as a featured speaker at the "Multiply Houston" leadership event on August 8, 2026.
  • **Safety and antisemitism:** Material returned; set out in full below.

What an initial search did return, on the other questions

The card's claim is about what the United States sends, and that question came back empty. These questions did return material. It is reproduced word for word so nothing found is lost, and it is context rather than a position on U.S. weapons or money. Em dashes are rendered as hyphens to satisfy house style; no wording is changed.

### Safety and antisemitism Through her involvement with the National Hispanic Pastors Alliance and the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews at the August 8, 2026 "Multiply Houston" conference, Fierro was associated with faith leadership programming that included training sessions examining antisemitism and promoting opposition to anti-Jewish bias based on Christian teachings. Outside of these faith-based leadership events, Fierro has not released detailed public policy statements or campaign positions specifically addressing safety measures or antisemitism.
