Each cell: how many voted that way, and the median pro-Israel PAC money on their records (half have more, half have less). The money is each senator's career total from the PACs tracked here, not money tied to this vote. Party explains most of the split, so compare within a party. The figures show who received what; they do not say why anyone voted as they did. How votes are chosen
