Cedar Lake, IN – Today, Lake County Councilman and candidate for Congress, Randy Niemeyer, expressed disappointment with Congressman Frank Mrvan’s failure to reject the support he has received from PACs aligned with Anti-Israel members of Congress.

Niemeyer said, “Congressman Mrvan needs to use better judgement when accepting donations from PACs who are clearly aligned with anti-Israel members of Congress. He should immediately return the campaign cash he received from the Build our Movement PAC closely connected to members of Congress who refuse to stand with Israel, or worse, defend the actions of the Hamas terrorists.”

According to FEC Reports, Congressman Mrvan accepted $5,000 from the Build our Movement PAC in the run up to the 2022 election. Build our Movement PAC is aligned with Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) who refused to support a recent Congressional resolution which sought to express support for Israel and to condemn Hamas terrorists for the October 7th attack. She also came under fire earlier this year for calling Israel a “racist state.”
