"I compared how senators voted on these resolutions to how much money (in the form of political contributions) they received from pro-Israel interest groups during the 2024 senate election cycle (2019-24).

Specifically, I compared the median amount of pro-Israel cash accepted by the group of senators who voted against Sanders’s resolutions — i.e., who voted to approve the weapons sales to Israel — to the median amount accepted by the senators who voted for Sanders’s resolutions, i.e., to block the weapons sales to Israel.

The senators who voted to approve the arms sales to Israel accepted over three times more money from pro-Israel donors than those who voted to block the sales. The precise amounts were $197,974 and $63,613, respectively.

If you want a full breakdown of how each senator voted on all three resolutions and the amount each received in pro-Israel donations, you have two options"
