Morning Update: ‘Yes’ to Bailout and India

Sens. John McCain (R-AZ), Barack Obama (D-IL), and Joe Biden (D-DE) all voted in favor of the emergency economic legislation on Wednesday. Ahead of the vote, both presidential candidates urged their Senate colleagues to support the bill. McCain warned of an economic “disaster” (WSJ) if the legislation failed again. Obama said Congress should pass the bill and “move with the same sense of urgency to rescue families on Main Street who are struggling to pay their bills and keep their jobs.”

INDIA: Both presidential candidates also voted in favor of the U.S.-India nuclear trade deal on Wednesday. That bill passed.
