Washington, DC - Today, the Republican Jewish Coalition Victory Fund released two new ads in the Michigan US Senate race featuring lifelong Jewish Democrats who will not vote for Abdul El-Sayed after he made excuses for the terror attack at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield. The ads will run in rotation as part of a $2 million dollar campaign in the Wolverine State, alongside a robust mail, grassroots, and GOTV operation.
RJC CEO Matt Brooks said:
Three years ago, on October 7, 2023, Iran-backed terrorists began the deadliest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. More than 1,200 men, women, and children were slaughtered in cold blood, among them 46 Americans, and 251 innocents were dragged as hostages to hell on earth, into the terror tunnels beneath Gaza.
It is on this solemn day that we are reminded precisely why antisemitic violence can never be excused; the RJC Victory Fund is launching a $2 million dollar GOTV campaign across Michigan's Jewish community, after Abdul El-Sayed made excuses for the Hezbollah-inspired terrorist who attacked Temple Israel in West Bloomfield this past March. We saw the smoke billowing from Temple Israel after the terrorist drove his car filled with explosives into a synagogue while Jewish schoolchildren played inside, and watched as Abdul El-Sayed said, "hurt people hurt people." A complete disgrace, and totally disqualifying to be Michigan's next United States Senator.
The RJC VF ads feature the voices of lifelong Jewish Democrats from Michigan, who are crystal clear: we will never vote for Abdul El-Sayed.
"I'm a lifelong Democrat, and I will never vote for Abdul El-Sayed."
