The US Campaign for Palestinian Rights tried to rip off the US government during COVID

A Zionist lawfare watchdog called The Zionist Advocacy Center (TZAC) has gotten the United States Campaign for Palestinian Rights to pay back the money that it fraudulently received from the US government - plus penalties.

In 2021, the USCPR applied for and received over $150,000 in "payroll protection" (PPP.) But, no surprise, the BDS group misrepresented itself to receive the funds. PPP is only meant for small businesses and some non-profits, but not political lobbying groups, and the entire purpose of USCPR is political lobbying against Israel.

USPCR will have to pay approximately $350,000 to settle the case.

TZAC has previously gotten other anti-Israel groups to return their PPP funds plus penalties.

Americans for Peace Now (APN) agreed to pay $261,890 in September 2024 to resolve allegations that it improperly obtained a $130,945 PPP loan.

Middle East Institute (MEI): settled allegations and agreed to pay $718,558 in June 2024 to resolve allegations related to a $359,279 Second Draw PPP loan.

Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) agreed to pay over $677,000 in January 2025 to resolve allegations related to a PPP loan.

The pattern seems more than coincidental. Anti-Israel groups seem to have shared information on how they could rip off the hated US government and pad their balance sheets.
