Candidates who called for limits on US arms to Israel won major races in the US midterm elections held on 3 November 2026, according to Haaretz. Haaretz reported that James Talarico, who called for limits on arms sales to Israel, won the Texas Senate race over Trump-backed Ken Paxton, flipping a seat Republicans had held since 1988. Haaretz also reported that Democratic Socialists of America candidates who campaigned against US military aid to Israel are poised to enter Congress, including two New Yorkers backed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani. A separate Haaretz piece profiled the newest Jewish Democrats in the House, Lander, Lasher, Biss and Moss, who hold a range of views on arms bans and the two-state solution. A Jerusalem Post editorial argued that US-Israel ties deserve transparency before elections, not after.
