Bailout Passes Senate

Today the Senate voted to pass the Bailout bill, which will now go back to the House.

Bailout Passes Senate 74-25

Treasury’s $700 billion rescue plan for the financial markets passed the Senate Wednesday night, giving the White House new confidence it has turned the corner and can win final approval from Congress by Friday.

Senator John McCain and Barack Obama both supported the bill.
