Senate Blocks Bill to Sanction International Criminal Court

Tuesday, 28 January 2025 03:07 PM EST

Legislation that would have imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court in protest at its arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former defense minister was blocked in the Senate on Tuesday.

The chamber voted 54-45, meaning the measure, which had already passed the Republican-majority House of Representatives, could not get the 60 yes votes needed in the 100-member Senate to advance the bill.
