NORPAC

NORPAC is a bipartisan, multi-candidate political action committee (PAC) working to strengthen United States-Israel relations.^[1] NORPAC has spent the past 30 years building deep ties with candidates for the US House and Senate who advance the alliance between the United States and Israel. Together with a donor network from across the country, NORPAC provides financial, organizational, and educational support for candidates. NORPAC is volunteer-founded and led, with funds going directly to pro-Israel candidates.

Each year, before its annual Mission to Washington, NORPAC selects 5 issues or bills it will discuss that year, including:^[2]

1. Foreign Aid to Israel
2. IFSA, the Iran Freedom Support Act (H.R.282 Archived 2008-11-04 at the Wayback Machine/S.333 Archived 2016-07-04 at the Wayback Machine), which imposes sanctions on Iran in response to nuclear activity.
3. USIECA, the US-Israel Energy Cooperation Act (H.R.2730 Archived 2008-11-24 at the Wayback Machine/S.1862), which supports joint alternative energy research.
4. PATA, the Palestinian Anti-Terror Act (H.R.4861 Archived 2008-11-04 at the Wayback Machine/S.2370^{[permanent dead link]}), which restricts aid to the Hamas-dominated Palestinian Authority (while still allowing humanitarian aid) unless certain actions opposing terror are taken.
5. The Saudi Arabia Accountability Act (H.R.2037 Archived 2016-07-05 at the Wayback Machine/S.1171^{[permanent dead link]}), which imposes sanctions on Saudi Arabia unless it clearly shuts down terrorist organizations within the country and ends support for such organizations outside the country.

Each year, NORPAC sends a group of active members to meet with Senators and Members of Congress to discuss the U.S.-Israel relationship. The mission includes up to 1,000 attendees and meets with the majority of congress.

NORPAC hosts fundraisers for various political candidates who are supportive of the U.S.-Israel relationship.
