Wamp To Vote For Revised Bailout

Republican Rep. Zach Wamp announced Thursday on Fox News that he intends to vote for the revised bailout package.

Wamp voted against the bill on Monday.

“I’m going to vote for version two,” Wamp said on Fox. “It’s time to put your hand on your heart and make a tough decision.”

Wamp said that the time has come for Congress to take immediate action.

“I don’t want next week to be the worst economic week in this country since September the 11th, one of the worst ever,” he said.

“The time has come to act and if some of us don’t change our vote, tomorrow’s gonna be an ugly day in America; and I don’t want to be a part of that.”
