Democratic Majority for Israel #DMFI is a lobbying group advocating pro-Israel policies within the Democratic Party.
They had cancelled their ads in NE-02 after the beneficiary, New Dem-endorsed Denise Powell, had disavowed support from pro-Israel PACs.
Now they are running ads in NE-02 through a shell PAC called "Pro-Choice Majority 2026," which has the same campaign treasurer.

Pro-Israel Super PAC Returns in Pro-Choice Clothing in Nebraska

Democratic Majority for Israel hastily got out of the Second District race after realizing the beneficiary of its spending had disavowed the group. It’s back under a different name.

How Democratic Senate primaries are being reshaped by candidates’ positions on Israel and Gaza

The article examines how Democratic candidates’ relationships with Israel, and their responses to the Gaza war, have become central fault lines in high‑profile primary contests across the United…

'At its 2025 convention, the DSA voted to support Palestinian resistance, […] affirming the right of return, Jerusalem as the capital. […] The resolution also declared that endorsing Zionist positions such as “Israel has a right to defend itself” could be an expellable offense. Delegates also passed a resolution titled “Labor for an Arms Embargo” with over 80 percent support.

'At the same time, the convention showed an organization pulled in two directions — responding to the shifts in consciousness around Palestinian liberation, yet being tethered to a strategy that operates within the limits set by the Democratic Party. For instance, the convention voted down a resolution for a single secular Palestinian state, and turned away from formal alignment with BDS — positions that would have placed DSA too openly against the politics of the Democratic Party. Yet in contradiction, they also passed new rules requiring candidates to support BDS and cut ties with Zionist lobbies — an uneasy compromise that captures both the break and its limits.'

The DSA Voted Against Zionism — But Will It Break from the Democrats? - Left Voice

At its 2025 convention, the DSA voted to support Palestinian resistance — a historic step. But as long as it remains tied to the Democratic Party, the party of genocide and repression, that vote will be contained. 

Left Voice

Daniel Levy: "As the movement for Palestinian rights has built up one kind of popular power, pro-Israel forces have doubled down on financial power. The Democratic Party could have said they will not allow independent expenditure campaigns, because they are a travesty and a disgrace to democracy, but they didn’t — and so they have enabled those pro-Israel forces."

‘This is also America’s war’: Why the U.S. isn’t stopping the Gaza onslaught

Israelis and Palestinians are making a terrible mistake by looking exclusively to Washington to solve their problems, says Daniel Levy.

"Despite broad popular support for legislation to curtail police violence, Congress got nothing done. Democrats, despite controlling both the House and Senate in 2021 and 2022, slow-walked the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, insisting on bipartisan support that never materialized."

"Both #BLM activists voted into Congress have been pushed out."

"Bowman and Bush have been routed out of Congress, thanks to a historic deluge of big-money spending against them. They battled challengers in the most and third-most-expensive congressional primaries in American history, respectively, and each was outspent roughly 4–1."
