Miriam Adelson
Controlling shareholder of Las Vegas Sands, which previously ran casinos in Las Vegas, but now runs casinos exclusively in Asia (China and Singapore).
Net worth: approximately $35 billion.
The Adelsons spent a record $172 million in the 2020 election cycle supporting Conservative candidates, and are among the most prolific donors associated with Israel.
They are ideologically aligned with the far right in Israel, and political candidates seeking their financial support often distinguish themselves by adopting far-right positions relating to Israel.
The Adelsons are financial sponsors of the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA), but also give directly to non-Israel-focused Conservative PACs — with the recipients understanding that Adelson’s support requires fealty towards Israel.
