Republican presidential candidate John Kasich will speak at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee’s (AIPAC) annual conference next week, the group confirmed, meaning all remaining GOP candidates will appear at the event. 

AIPAC announced the appearance on Twitter, and ABC News’s Ben Gittleson reported Kasich will speak to the group on Monday. 

{mosads}The Ohio governor is joining a speaking roster that includes GOP presidential rivals Donald Trump and Ted Cruz, Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, Vice President Biden and members of House leadership. 

Fox News had scheduled a GOP presidential debate for Monday, but Trump announced earlier this week that he would skip the debate in order to speak to AIPAC.

Kasich refused to participate in the debate unless Trump did so, and the network subsequently canceled the event. 

Democrat Bernie Sanders, the only Jewish candidate in the presidential race, is the only candidate who is not confirmed to speak at the conference.
