A national group plans to spend big on television ads aimed at a Kentucky congressman because of his perceived anti-Israel views.
The United Democracy Project will spend about $300,000 to buy ads on Fox affiliates criticizing Republican Rep. Thomas Massie’s voting record on measures supporting Israel, said project spokesperson Patrick Dorton.
“We are not playing in the primary, but we are trying to shine a light on the radical anti-Israel record of Tom Massie,” Dorton said. “We want every single voter in the state of Kentucky to know about his anti-Israel actions.”
“Republicans are trying to help Israel, but one Republican is standing in the way,” the ad states, adding Massie voted against Israel with “anti-Israel radicals” 15 times in April.
The United Democracy Project is an affiliate of AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, a major pro-Israel lobbying group.
