Including:

A top U.S. senator who oversees funding for the U.N. threatened on Friday to pull financial support for the international body if it moves forward with the resolution, and for any nation that backs the measure.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., who heads the subcommittee that controls foreign aid, said in a statement: "If the United Nations moves forward with the ill-conceived resolution, I will work to form a bipartisan coalition to suspend or significantly reduce United States assistance to the United Nations."
