About Elliott Nahmias

As AIPAC's San Diego and Palm Springs Director, Elliott Nahmias works with the
community to organize the political and grassroots efforts of pro-Israel
activists in 6 Congressional Districts. Prior to AIPAC, he lived in Israel for
seven years where he founded a legal consultancy business. Before moving to
Israel, he had a successful legal career at a firm in Orange County and as a
prosecutor in the Riverside County Distric Attorney's office. He earned a B.A.
in Philosophy from UCLA, a law degree from Loyola Law School and a Master's
degree in Government, Diplomacy and Strategy from the Interdisciplinary Center
(IDC) in Herzliya, Israel.



About AIPAC

For more than half a century, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee has
worked to help make Israel more secure by ensuring that American support
remains strong. From a small pro-Israel public affairs boutique in the 1950s,
AIPAC has grown into a 100,000-member national grassroots movement described by
The New York Times as "the most important organization affecting America's
relationship with Israel."



Political advocacy is one of the most effective ways in which AIPAC works to
accomplish its mission. Each year, AIPAC is involved in more than 100
legislative and policy initiatives involving Middle East policy or aimed at
broadening and deepening the U.S.-Israel bond.



AIPAC works to secure vital U.S. foreign aid for Israel to help ensure Israel
remains strong and secure. AIPAC is working to promote strategic cooperation
between the two nations, to develop sound U.S. anti-terrorist policies, to
share homeland security techniques and technologies, and to stop rogue nations
such as Iran from acquiring weapons of mass destruction.
