    Despite that, Rand Paul still voted for it, though. The Times of Israel: Senate passes symbolic resolution backing Israel 97-0

    Paul still voted in favor of the resolution, while Republican Tim Scott and Democrats Dick Durbin and Laphonza Butler were not in the Capitol for the vote.

    Edit to add: The House is next, and the vast majority of them have already jumped on the co-sponsor train:

    A similarly symbolic resolution has been introduced in the House, with 392 members signing on as co-sponsors. It is expected to also be passed in the coming days.
