Hi there,

It is the job of the press to cover power, not cover for power—to hold those in power accountable by documenting what's happening on the ground and amplifying voices at the grassroots. In this critical moment, as attacks on the media escalate, we must continue to cover crackdowns on dissent, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, public health and academic freedom. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

U.S. Diplomats Samantha Power, Susan Rice to Attend AIPAC

HeadlineFeb 27, 2015

The Obama administration is sending two top diplomats to the annual gathering of the powerful pro-Israel group AIPAC. The conference opens Sunday just two days before Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to address Congress in a bid to undermine the Obama administration’s attempts at a nuclear deal with Iran. White House National Security Adviser Susan Rice, who has called Netanyahu’s visit “destructive,” will address the AIPAC summit, along with U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power.
