It's time to name and shame one of AIPAC's biggest allies in Congress: MAGA Rep. Mike Lawler. I'm Effie Phillips-Staley. I'm running to replace him in New York's 17th. Lawler only cares about two things: Trump's agenda and his two million dollars in AIPAC money. Not you. Not us. I'm the first candidate in this race to support the Block the Bombs Act. I traveled to the West Bank to elevate the voices of Palestinians living under occupation. And Citizens Against AIPAC Corruption has endorsed me

How much does MAGA Rep. Mike Lawler love Israel? He wants to ARREST Americans who protest Israel’s genocide against Gaza, or the apartheid state Israel has created. Lawler sponsored H.R. 867, the IGO Anti-Boycott Act, which could jail Americans for up to 20 years for simply participating in a boycott of Israel. I know, not the most surprising thing from the man who has received OVER TWO MILLION dollars in money from pro-Israel groups. I’m Effie Phillips-Staley, a pro-Palestinian advocate runni

I travelled to the West Bank in February. The establishment is trying to silence what I saw, but I won't stop fighting. I'm Effie Phillips-Staley, the progressive Democrat running for Congress to beat Mike Lawler in NY-17, one of the most vulnerable Republican-held districts. I believe in universal human rights, and my commitment to those principles extends to Palestinians just as much as it does for Israelis. My campaign rejects all corporate PAC money and AIPAC money. We cannot allow speci

Mike Lawler just got shamed at his own town hall for selling out his district. He's taken over $2 million from AIPAC and votes with Trump whenever it counts. Lawler calls himself a moderate. He's MAGA built on a brand of lies. I'm Effie Phillips-Staley, and I'm running for Congress to unseat him in NY-17. I take $0 from AIPAC. $0 from corporate PACs. And Lawler is so threatened by this campaign he sued to get me off the ballot. He lost. Now, I need you to help me make sure he loses again in No

I went to Palestine. What I saw was worse than I could imagine. Thriving villages destroyed. Constant threats from IDF occupiers. That's why I'm running for Congress - because EVERYONE deserves human rights, here and abroad. I'm Effie Phillips-Staley, the progressive Democrat running to beat Mike Lawler in NY-17. I'm running because healthcare and childcare should be a right. Because deliberately attacking civilians here or abroad is NEVER justifiable. These aren't just talking points. They're

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
