The resolution, adopted for the 33rd consecutive year, “once again urges the states that have applied and continue to apply such laws and measures to take the necessary steps to repeal or invalidate them as soon as possible.”
this is a general assembly resolution, which means that it is non-binding. the only binding resolutions are passed in the security council, where US has a veto (this is where the Israel-Palestine related resolutions have been failing to pass for the past two years if you recall). this exact general assembly resolution has passed for 33 times now.
