D · U.S. House, VA-8 · Tier 4/5

Tier 4/5, between “Critical / conditions aid” and “Critical on most positions”

Position

'Israel is committing genocide in Gaza'; arms embargo; restore UNRWA. Challenged Beyer, losing the Aug 4, 2026 VA-8 primary 17.6% to 67.6%. Calls to stop all US military aid and weapons transfers until Israel ends its apartheid policies — “no special treatment or exceptions” — plus targeted sanctions on Israel.

Why this tier

A 4/5, on a thin record: a campaign issues page and one questionnaire, from a run that ended in the August 4 primary. In his own words, “Israel is committing genocide in Gaza,” and he backs “an immediate arms embargo on Israel”; his issues page says the U.S. must stop all military aid and weapons transfers “until Israel ends its apartheid policies and fully follows international law,” with “no special treatment or exceptions.” He also backs restoring UNRWA funding and targeted sanctions on Israel. What holds it short of 5 is that the cutoff is tied to a condition, lasting until Israel ends its apartheid policies, and rests on a short campaign record. No BDS, anti-Zionist or right-of-return position is on record. Counter-case: 5, since the embargo has no carve-out for defensive systems.
