This is great news. Very happy that at least 6 Dem candidates [now 7] for president won’t show up at the AIPAC Conference.
Several Democratic presidential candidates will skip the American Israel Public Affairs Committee's policy conference this year after a prominent progressive group called on them to boycott the event.
Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., Kamala Harris, D-Calif., and Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., will all ditch the conference, the Associated Press reported, and a spokesman for former Rep. Beto O’Rourke, D-Texas, told NBC News that he also will not attend.

Josh Orton, a policy director for Sanders, told NBC News that the senator is "concerned about the platform AIPAC is providing for leaders who have expressed bigotry and oppose a two-state solution.”
Sanders didn't attend the 2016 conference while he was running in the Democratic presidential primary, but addressed the Israeli-Palestinian conflict at length during a speech around the time of the event.
The candidates' decisions to skip the prominent pro-Israel lobbying group’s conference come one day after liberal group MoveOn.org called on all 2020 presidential candidates to steer clear of the event

Headliners at the conference include Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
Netanyahu is an obstacle to peace and works to create apartheid-like conditions for Palestinians. He also is a Trumper.
Love the unity among those refusing to go.
Update I: From the comments, Inslee is skipping also! Source is MoveOn tweet.
