Senate Democrats to Take Up Bill to Loan $25B to Auto Indusry
Associated Press
Senate Democrats will take up a bill to extend $25 billion in emergency loans to the auto industry on Monday.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says he plans a test vote on it two days later.
Meanwhile, supporters scrambled Friday for Republican votes needed to break an expected filibuster by opponents.
Supporters expect to need between a dozen and 15 GOP votes to attach the measure to a $6 billion bill the House passed in October that would extend jobless benefits. So far, however, they have only one firm commitment, from Sen. George Voinovich of Ohio, a state with several auto plants and manufacturers of auto supplies.
