How Much Does Your State Send to Israel?
The US has sent $310.0B+ to Israel since 1948 (inflation-adjusted) — the single largest cumulative recipient of US foreign assistance in the post-WWII era. $17.8B in FY24 alone ($3.8B MOU + $14.0Bemergency). Here's your state's share, calculated from federal income tax revenue.
Per-State Aid Share — All 50 States + DC
Each state's share of $17.8B= its share of federal income tax revenue × total aid. Click any row for that state's lobby data.
Methodology
$3,800,000,000/year in baseline aid under the 2016 10-year Memorandum of Understanding, plus a $14,000,000,000 emergency supplemental enacted in April 2024.

Each state's share = the state's share of total US federal income tax revenue × total aid. California paid ~12.3% of federal income tax → ~12.3% of every aid dollar.

Per-household burden = the state's total share ÷ its household count. Across all 127,911,000 US households, the average is $139.
Source: US Census Bureau 2023 ACS 1-year estimates.
Per-capita burden = the state's total share ÷ its population (334,914,895 US-wide). The average comes out to $53 per person.

What this is, and isn't. Federal aid to Israel is funded by federal tax revenue. Because individual taxpayers don't earmark their dollars, "how much your state contributes" is a proportional attribution — each state's share of the federal income tax pie applied to the federal aid line item. This calculation does not include defense contractor revenue, weapons inventory transfers, or loan guarantees, which would push the total higher. It also does not adjust for federal spending that flows back into states (which would push the net figure lower for some states and higher for others). It's the simplest, most defensible per-state attribution of the explicit FY24 aid line.
