Affirm US support for Israel and condemn Hamas

Plain English.

A Senate resolution affirming the United States' support for Israel in the wake of the October 7, 2023 Hamas attacks. The resolution committed the Senate to backing 'all necessary means' for Israel to defend itself and condemned Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran by name.

The stakes.

Passed 97-0 — every senator who voted, voted Yea. The unanimous tally is the receipt: this is the floor on which every subsequent Israel-related vote was built. No senator was willing to be the lone Nay.

• Passed 97-0 — the rare unanimous foreign-policy resolution.
• Set the political baseline for the $26B aid package (H.R.8034) five months later.
• Three senators did not vote; no senator voted Nay.
• The unanimity itself is the lobby fingerprint — no senator broke from the AIPAC-favored line.
