Pro-Israel Group Pushes for Haley Stevens in Michigan Senate Race

[demmiblue]

The country’s most powerful pro-Israel group, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, is jumping into the intense Democratic primary race for Senate in Michigan.

The group’s main super PAC, the United Democracy Project, on Tuesday released its first round of ads backing Representative Haley Stevens, a moderate lawmaker who is in a three-way fight before the August primary.

As of Tuesday afternoon, the super PAC had reserved about $2.3 million in ads, according to the media tracking firm AdImpact. It is the super PAC’s first disclosed involvement in a Senate race in the 2026 election cycle.

Big money is arriving for other candidates, too. One of Ms. Stevens’s rivals, Mallory McMorrow, a state senator, is also set to benefit from the first spending for her from an outside group. On Tuesday, a nonprofit group that appears to be aligned with her, Yes MI Action Committee, reserved $4.9 million in advertising time, according to AdImpact data.
