As student activists at Arizona State University, we consistently make efforts to strengthen and expand our relationships with Members of Congress, by interacting with them on social media, assisting on their campaigns, interning in their district offices, and engaging with them at events. In the 2018-2019 school year, SunPAC led efforts on a Campus to Congress initiative. During the 2018 Midterm Election Cycle, SunPAC-trained activists worked to ensure that pro-Israel congressional candidates received significant student support in the form of time, talent, and treasure. By getting involved in Congressional races, campus activists interacted with key political figures, built important relationships, and helped influence policy-makers now and into the future. As a part of this initiative, SunPAC-trained activists maximized their impact on the election by supporting pro-Israel candidates of their choice, committing to solicitation and mobilization efforts through volunteer hours and fundraising for both Democratic and Republican candidates in a pro-Israel context. We also used this initiative to broaden our base to include previously uninvolved pro-Israel students in political activity and engage campus political groups. Lastly, we ensured that Congressional candidates understood the key issues most important to the pro-Israel community - including Israel's right to defend itself.
At SunPAC, we strive to demonstrate many of the ways in which the U.S.-Israel relationship positively and directly affects our community. We work to research the ways in which a partnership with Israel is mutually beneficial for both Israel and Arizona. We highlight projects and businesses in Arizona that are being done in collaboration with Israeli organizations and companies or by utilizing Israeli technology.
