BREAKING: House passes auto bailout

By GottaLaff

CNN just announced that the vote was 237-170. But the Senate may not have the votes to pass it.

UPDATE:

From NBC’s John Yang
The House version of the auto industry bailout bill includes a cost-of-living pay raise for federal judges and Supreme Court justices. (Section 19, Paragraph c.)

A senior administration official says this was done with the administration's approval -- just a convenient legislative vehicle to get it into law.
