Michaela Barnett

D · U.S. House, TN-2 · not rated

Position

No position on Israel, Gaza or Palestine found. Her campaign's “My Opponent” page faults Rep. Tim Burchett for having “Collected over $800,000 from special interest PACs, including over $50,000 from AIPAC,” listed under government corruption, and for voting to extend the war in Iran. An engineer and small-business owner, the TN-2 Democratic nominee runs on jobs, healthcare costs, infrastructure and anti-corruption reforms.

Why not rated

Not rated: attacking an opponent's AIPAC money is a money-and-influence argument, not a position on aid, arms or Gaza, and nothing else on her campaign site, in her Substack newsletters or Bluesky posts or in her 2026 Ballotpedia survey addresses Israel. Unrated until a position is stated.
