    The Senate voted 96-0 in favor of new sanctions against North Korea in response to its recent missile launch. The legislation aims to restrict North Korea's ability to finance nuclear weapons development by limiting related goods and technology. It also bans foreign aid to countries providing military aid to North Korea and targets trade in key industrial commodities. The House previously passed a similar bill, and Republican presidential candidates Cruz and Rubio returned from campaigning to vote for the sanctions.
