>>512009815>>512009815Senators voted 27-70, defeating Sandersโs resolution, which sought to block more than $675 million in weapons sales to Israel.
A second resolution garnered 24 in favor, and 73 against. That resolution sought to prohibit the sale of tens of thousands of fully automatic assault rifles.
โWhatever happens tonight, history will condemn those of us who failed to act in the face of these horrors,โ Sanders said ahead of the vote.
It was the third time Sanders put senators on record over their military support for Israel. An April vote garnered 15 Democratic Senators. A vote in November 2024 garnered 18 Democratic senators.
