Citizens for Fair Legislation
For Immediate Release
September 17, 2004
********************************
CFL ALERT: 61% OF AMERICANS BELIEVE AIPAC SHOULD REGISTER AS AGENT OF A
FOREIGN GOVERNMENT AND LOSE ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS.
We include text from the Zogby report below:
Zogby International conducted interviews of 1,004 likely voters chosen at
random nationwide. All calls were made from Zogby International headquarters
in Utica, N.Y., from 9/8/04 thru 9/9/04. The margin of error is +/- 3.1
percentage points. Slight weights were added to region, party, age, race,
religion, and gender to more accurately reflect the voting population. Margins
of error are higher in subgroups. Numbers have been rounded to the nearest
percent and might not total 100.
Narrative Summary
A tax-exempt organization that lobbies Congress on behalf of Israel, the
American Israel Public Affairs Committee (also known as AIPAC), has been under
investigation by the FBI for allegedly receiving classified information from a
Pentagon official and using this information on behalf of the government of
Israel. In view of this investigation, do you strongly agree, somewhat agree,
somewhat disagree, or strongly disagree that AIPAC should be asked to register
as an agent of a foreign government and lose its tax-exempt status?
Strongly agree 44%
Somewhat agree 17 Agree 61%
Somewhat disagree 6
Strongly disagree 6 Disagree 12
Not sure 27
By a five-to-one margin, people are much more likely to agree than disagree
that AIPAC should be asked to register as an agent of a foreign government and
lose its tax-exempt status. Three in five (61%) agree, including 44% who
strongly agree. One in eight (12%) disagrees, and more than one in four (27%)
are not sure.
