Yehuda Neuberger

Name:
Yehuda Neuberger

AIPAC Role:
Member of AIPAC's Board of Directors

Professional Profile/Associations:
AIPAC national board member and Chair of AIPAC's Baltimore Executive Council. Principal of SIM Holdings LLC, a private equity investment firm. Director of Maiden Holdings, a Bermuda-based insurance holding company. Former Executive Vice President of American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC. Graduate of Johns Hopkins University and Harvard Law School. Chair of the Orthodox Union's Institute for Public Affairs, the organization's political advocacy arm. Lobbied Senator Ben Cardin to oppose the Obama administration's Iran nuclear deal. Advisory Board Member of TATYA, a conservative Israeli organization. Married to Anne Neuberger, who served as Deputy National Security Adviser for Cyber and Emerging Technology under former President Biden. Through the Anne and Yehuda Neuberger Foundation, donated over $559,000 to AIPAC (2012–2018) and $10,500 to the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, a hawkish pro-Israel think tank opposing Iran diplomacy.

Accountability:

As a member of AIPAC's Board of Directors, Yehuda Neuberger bears individual legal responsibility for the organization's conduct. Under U.S. nonprofit law, board members hold fiduciary duties to ensure organizational compliance with applicable legal standards, implement oversight systems for core activities, and respond to credible information about organizational wrongdoing. In Stern v. Lucy Webb Hayes (1974), the federal district court held that nonprofit directors who fail to supervise organizational decisions breach their fiduciary obligations. In In re Lemington Home for the Aged (3d Cir. 2015), the Third Circuit upheld $2.25 million in damages against nonprofit directors who ignored red flags and failed to exercise reasonable oversight. 

The information in these profiles is drawn primarily from AIPAC's most recent IRS Form 990, supplemented by publicly available sources including news reports, official announcements, and public records. As a 501(c)(4) social welfare organization, AIPAC is legally required to file Form 990 annually with the Internal Revenue Service, and these filings are public documents.

However, IRS regulations allow organizations up to eleven months after their fiscal year ends to submit these forms, meaning publicly available data typically lags by approximately one year. This inherent delay underscores why AIPAC—like most major organizations of its size and influence—should maintain a current, public-facing leadership page identifying its board members and senior executives. The absence of such transparency from AIPAC necessitates this project. We are committed to accuracy and will update these profiles as new information becomes available.
