David Bocarsly, the executive director of the Jewish Public Affairs Committee, was shocked to learn from his peers that the California Faculty Association had included his organization in a controversial statement some believed pointed to antisemitic practices within the CFA.
“When I first saw it, I felt shock, and then sadness and then a little bit of fear once I started to process what that really meant,” Bocarsly said.
The CFA sent out a questionnaire to candidates for its 2026 election cycle. On the last page, it asked candidates if they have endorsements or take contributions from groups and sectors like the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, JPAC of California, the oil industry, the tobacco industry and police associations, which followed a statement saying partnering with the CFA’s movement meant rejecting campaign contributions and endorsements from groups that “harm working people.”
