(CNN) The liberal advocacy group MoveOn is urging 2020 presidential candidates to skip the American Israel Public Affairs Committee's annual policy conference in Washington next week. "We are formally asking 2020 presidential candidates to not attend the conference," Iram Ali, MoveOn's campaign director, told CNN on Wednesday. Ali said MoveOn did not consider the Minnesota Democrat's comments or the reaction to them. "We have four main points as to why we think 2020 candidates should skip the AIPAC conference," Ali said. "First and foremost is that AIPAC has become more and more partisan over the years."
