New Memo Reveals Biden-Harris Administration Misused Taxpayer Dollars to Fund Radical Anti-Israel Protests and Terrorist-linked NGOs

May 29, 2026
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the House Judiciary Committee released a memo titled, "The Biden-Harris Administration's Funding of Anti-Netanyahu Non-Governmental Organizations, Part II," detailing a continued pattern of the Biden-Harris Administration's neglect and misuse of taxpayer dollars through U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the State Department, and other federal agencies that were used to directly and indirectly fund the efforts of anti-Netanyahu organizations and terrorist groups. There is also evidence that U.S. nonprofits may be violating 501(c)(3) provisions of U.S. law by funding radical anti-Israel groups and protests against the Israeli government. 

The Committee released its first memo in July 2025, revealing that the Biden-Harris Administration provided grant funds to groups that contributed directly and indirectly to the judicial reform protests that sought to undermine the Israeli government. 

The Committee's New Key Findings:
  • U.S. nonprofit Rockefeller Brothers Fund provided nearly $4 million to radical, anti-Israel groups, including some with alleged ties to terrorist organizations; 
  • USAID grantee and tax-exempt organization, the Tides Network, provided over $1 million to anti-Israel groups, including some with ties to terrorist organizations; 
  • U.S. nonprofits, the Jewish Communal Fund, and its grantees, Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors and PEF Israel Endowment Funds, may be violating section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status by funding radical anti-Israel groups; 
  • Israeli nonprofit, Movement for Quality Government, has failed to cooperate with the Committee's inquiry concerning its funding of anti-Israeli-government NGOs; 
  • According to a 2023 audit, Israeli nonprofit and U.S. government grantee Abraham Initiatives failed to comply with anti-terrorism procedures.

The Committee will continue to work to prevent the misuse of federal grant funds to interfere in the political affairs of foreign countries.
