NY-07: Mysterious pro-Reynoso (D) super PAC is funded by teachers union, not AIPAC

t’s not Israel. It’s the teachers union.

Contrary to congressional candidate Claire Valdez’s speculation, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee is not behind Real Fight NYC, a recently formed super PAC that has now spent $650,000 on ads boosting Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso’s congressional run. Instead, the group is backed by unions that have endorsed Reynoso – with the American Federation of Teachers providing a significant donation.

“We’re a part of Real Fight NYC,” AFT President Randi Weingarten confirmed to City & State on Tuesday. News of the AFT’s involvement in Real Fight NYC was first reported by Drop Site’s Ryan Grim.
