Stimulus Bill Passes House, Heads to Senate Next

The compromised version of the ARRA or Stimulus bill passed the House of Representatives by a final tally of 246 Democrats (Yea), 176 Republicans (Nay), 7 Democrats (Nay), 1 Present vote and 2 No Votes. Of significance is that not one Republican voted for the bill. The Senate is expect to vote on the matter later today. In the Senate, Judd Gregg is expected to vote "No".
