In case you’re interested and want to see the official yes/no list for the “bailout” bill. Here’s a link to the list:

The header of the bill:
H R 3997 RECORDED VOTE 29-Sep-2008 2:07 PM
QUESTION: On Concurring in Senate Amendment With An Amendment
BILL TITLE: To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide earnings assistance and tax relief to members of the uniformed services, volunteer firefighters, and Peace Corps volunteers, and for other purposes
I don’t know why, but I found the Bill Title a little “vague.” I believe the real title is, “Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008.”
