The vote reflected resounding bipartisan support for the measure, which passed the House of Representatives by a wide margin on Saturday.
The Senate’s action, with a vote of 79 to 18, represented a victory for the president, who had urged lawmakers to act quickly to be able to sign the law.
“Our allies around the world have been watching Congress for the past six months and wondering the same thing: When it matters most, will America be able to muster the strength to come together?” Senator Chuck Schumer said Tuesday: “In tonight, under the watchful eye of history, the Senate answers that question with a stormy and resounding yes.”
In a statement minutes after the vote, Biden said he would sign the bill “and address the American people as soon as it reaches my desk so that we can begin sending weapons and equipment to Ukraine this week.”
