I'm watching
C-SPAN as I write this. The House of Representatives is now voting on the Revised Bailout Bill. The revised bill passed through the Senate on Wednesday by a vote of 74-25. This
CNN article highlights some of the important changes between the original, rejected bill and the new bill.
The final results of the bill:
Democrats -
- Yea: 172
- Nay: 63
- Present: 0
- Did not vote: 0
Republicans -
- Yea: 91
- Nay: 108
- Present: 0
- Did not vote: 0
Total -
- Yea: 263
- Nay: 171
- Present: 0
- Did not vote: 0
Now that the House has passed the revised bill, it's up to the President to approve or reject the bill.
