Tier 3, “Pro-Israel, critical”
His foreign-policy plank opposes putting Israel first and America second (“No reason we should be funding nearly all of the costs for another country’s social programs, when Americans go without”) and says “No to AIPAC money,” without calling for U.S. aid to Israel to end. He told WHYY “We are the United States of America, not the United States of Israel” and that the Iran war “is being fought for and on behalf of Israel.” A Vineland nurse technician, he is running as an independent in NJ-2. No statement of his on Gaza or Palestinians was found.
A 3, on a thin record: one campaign-site plank and one statement in WHYY’s September 2026 voter guide. The plank, against putting Israel first and America second, says “No reason we should be funding nearly all of the costs for another country’s social programs, when Americans go without,” and “No to AIPAC money”; he told WHYY he is “not pro putting another country’s well being before our own.” That objects to U.S. money for Israel by name, on America First grounds, but treats it as paying for social programs, though the aid is military, and never says it should end, be cut or carry conditions. He separates Israel from Jews, citing “our Jewish Americans facing REAL antisemitism here in America that has increased due to Israel’s war campaign.” His site, the guide and his Ballotpedia survey say nothing on Gaza, Palestinians or how the war is fought. Counter-cases: 3/4, reading “No reason we should be funding” as a call to stop the aid; or 2/3, since he proposes no step on aid or weapons and says nothing of Israel’s conduct.
