  • Three Democratic senators voted against a $95.3 billion bill to give aid to Israel and Ukraine.
  • They each cited the brutality of Israel's war in Gaza, saying the US shouldn't provide more weapons.
  • Other Democratic senators who have been critical of the war voted for the aid anyway.

Early on Tuesday morning, the Senate passed a $95.3 billion bill to provide aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan by a 70-29 margin.
