Connie Chan, the US Democrat endorsed by former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to succeed her in California’s 11th congressional district, has called for a “full arms embargo on the Israeli government”.
In a televised debate on Thursday night, days before mail-in ballots are sent to California voters, Chan said that “on day one in Congress”, she would vote to “end a genocide in Gaza and to end an apartheid state”.
All 435 House seats and 35 Senate seats are at stake in November’s midterm elections, with both parties vying for control of Congress.
While on Capitol Hill, Pelosi long supported Israel, condemning efforts to boycott or sanction the country and voting in favour of military aid.
