Her defeat is another loss for progressives in a race defined by Democratic divisions over the war in Gaza, with pro-Israel groups pouring millions into a campaign to oust her from office.

Summary of events:

Bush was elected in 2020 when she beat former Rep. William Lacy Clay in the Democratic primary.

In a phone call last summer her challenger Bell told her he would not run against her.

Bush was one of the first members of Congress to call for a ceasefire in Gaza, alongside Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., the only Palestinian American member of Congress.

This primary AIPAC spent $8.5 million supporting Bell including mailers which featured images with distortions made to Bush’s features. It is the fourth most expensive primary in House history.

This is now the 2nd Squad member AIPAC has removed through its campaign financing.
