UPDATE: Congress voted on this bill again today. This time it passed. Find out how your congressman voted today.

Nothing in the $700B proposed bailout requires banks to start lending to individuals and businesses again. Nothing protects taxpayers from losses. Unless congress can override a presidential veto with a 2/3′s super majority there is no congressional oversight.

More than 200 congressmen and congresswomen voted for this bailout. Find out whether yours did and let them know how you feel. Vote them out of office in November if they supported it.
