But What Can You Do? tracks where 2026 candidates stand on U.S. weapons and funding for the government of Israel. How we check
Carol Miller
- Backed with $22K by PACs we track that support U.S. weapons funding for the government of Israel (lifetime)
- Endorsed by AIPAC
Miller voted for every tracked aid bill and against both amendments to cut aid to Israel, telling West Virginia radio in April 2024 that “The world’s hair is on fire” as she backed the allies package. She co-sponsored the February 2024 bill halting UNRWA funding.

Deep Dive
Miller has represented West Virginia in the House since 2019. Her six recorded votes appear as badges on this card: Yes on all four tracked aid measures, No on both amendments to cut aid to Israel.
Defending the April 2024 package on MetroNews’ Talkline: "The world’s hair is on fire... if you are a student of history and you start looking back to what was going on in the 30s, it’s kind of spooky how this is all kind of coming back to fruition." On the Palestinian side her located position is restrictive: she co-sponsored Rep. Jackson’s February 2024 bill halting U.S. funding to UNRWA, verified in the sponsor list, and a March 2024 resolution condemning the ICJ’s provisional measures against Israel.
She co-sponsored Rep. Fry’s resolution marking one year since October 7, verified in that release’s co-sponsor list. Her fullest statements, the November 2, 2023 $14.3 billion supplemental release and the October 26, 2023 H.Res. 771 statement ("Supporting and standing with Israel is nonnegotiable"), are on the research page; so do her November 2023 hearing remarks. Her October 2024 statement after Iran’s missile strikes sits on the research page. A 2019 JNS profile describing her as "very pro-Israel" stays as reported, not confirmed directly. In May 2025 she presented encampment photos while questioning university officials at a campus-antisemitism hearing. AIPAC’s and the Republican Jewish Coalition’s tracked support appears as badges on this card.
The record
Supported sending weapons or funding in 6 of 6 tracked votes
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 6 of 6 tracked votes.)
