WASHINGTON — Spending by pro-Israel political action committees on congressional campaigns has increased at a far sharper rate in the 1980s than election spending by PACs as a whole, Common Cause said Thursday.
Common Cause said Thursday that the groups supporting Israel gave House and Senate candidates $373,850 in the 1979-80 election cycle, $1,894,800 in 1981-82 and $3,372,393 in 1983-84.
