Abdul El-Sayed Blasts AIPAC’s $30M Spending to Elect Haley Stevens
July 30, 2026
Doctor and Michigan politician Dr. Abdul El-Sayed delivers a powerful speech exposing how dark-money super PACs are spending tens of millions to buy U.S. congressional seats and silence anti-war voices.
“My job is to care about YOU. I want your tax dollars spent in Michigan—for schools, healthcare, and roads in Michigan. Sending that money to kill women and children is the WORST possible use of our tax dollars!”
Millions in PAC money flooded in to bankroll smear ads and lie about his record.
Why? Simply because he had the courage to say Palestinians deserve basic human rights and self-determination.
Why? Because he believes American tax money should build roads and hospitals in Michigan, not fund foreign violence.
We are sick and tired of our tax dollars funding death abroad while our own communities get left behind.
CALL OUT THE CORRUPTION.

English Script:
Abdul El-Sayed: The difference between us is $46 million of AIPAC spending. They’ve set a record in this race to help elect my opponent, because they know that she’ll be a reliable vote, just like she took last week to send your tax dollars to a foreign government that is aiding, arming, and abetting the very people who want to foreclose on the possibility of Palestinian self-determination. Look, at the end of the day, my job is to take care of you here. I want to be your U.S. senator. I want your tax dollars spent in Michigan, to provide schools in Michigan to build health care in Michigan, to build roads in Michigan. And I think that money sent over there to kill kids and women is the worst use of our tax dollars. And yet that’s exactly what $46 million in spending will buy you. And, I believe deeply that we have a responsibility to make sure that we don’t make other people’s problems worse. So I believe in equal rights to peace, dignity and self-determination for Palestinians and Jewish Israelis alike. I believe that we should not be fighting stupid wars that AIPAC wants us to fight in the first place. And I believe we have a responsibility to keep our money here, to invest here. That really is the difference. We’re being outspent in this race 12 to 1. Chances are you’re going to see an ad, probably two of them, on behalf of AIPAC for my opponent in the next commercial break. That’s what that buys you, lying about a record around President Obama’s endorsement or lying about me and my character. But that’s exactly what happens when you stand up and say, maybe Palestinians should have rights, too. And maybe we should have rights to our tax dollars here at home.
