Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) said Thursday he will not accept further donations from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and will return donations he has already received from the group.
“I’m a friend of Israel, but not of its current government, and AIPAC’s mission today is to back that government,” he added. “I don’t support that direction.”
According to OpenSecrets, individuals affiliated with AIPAC donated $32,850 to Moulton’s campaign in 2023 and 2024, while the group itself donated $10,000, totaling $42,850. That makes AIPAC the top contributor to Moulton’s campaign over the previous two years.
Moulton’s campaign is in the process of returning $35,000 in AIPAC donations, a campaign official told The Hill. According to a quarterly Federal Election Commission finance report the campaign filed on Wednesday, $15,560 in AIPAC donations from the third quarter of 2025 will be returned.
On Wednesday, Moulton announced he is challenging Massachusetts Sen. Ed Markey in the Democratic primary for the 2026 Senate race. The 46-year-old said that Markey, 79, is not “the right person to meet this moment and win the future.”
Markey, according to OpenSecrets, did not receive campaign donations from AIPAC from 2019 to 2024.

I give him a month
A man named Robert Moulton III gave testimony at the Salem Witch Trials. Distant ancestors of Linda Moulton-Howe can be traced back there, where others named Howe were involved. Seth was born in Salem. None of this is coincidence.
Who gets and who gives back AIPAC money is insignificant.
