Bush calls on House to 'get this bill passed'
A day after the Senate easily approved a massive plan to shore up the US financial system, President Bush today called for the House to ``get this bill passed so we can get about the business of restoring confidence'' in the American economy.
The $858 billion tax bill negotiated by President Obama and the GOP heads to the House today after clearing its first obstacle in the legislative gauntlet--the Senate--by a 81-19 vote.
