House Passes Stimulus

The House passed the Stimulus bill by a vote of 246-183 with one member voting present. The bill will be voted on in the Senate sometime today. The vote will most likely occur around 5:00pm, which the monotonous C-SPAN voice said is "to accommodate religious beliefs of some members." In other words, so Joe Lieberman can vote for the bill.

I'm curious to know who voted "Present". House.gov does not have any information yet.

On to the Senate...
