Senators discuss auto maker bailout in Washington
Sen. Carl Levin, D-MI, speaks to the media about his proposed bailout options for automakers Ford, GM and Chrysler, on Capitol Hill in Washington on November 20, 2008. Senate and House leaders are delaying action, pending receipt of reform plans from the auto industry, and plan to return to the issue in early December. Levin argued that his plan might be able to pass if brought immediately to the floor, but it is unlikely the Senate will take up the matter again today. From left are Sen. Arlen Specter, R-PA, Sen. Christopher Bond, R-MO, Levin, Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-MI, and Sen. George Voinovich, R-OH. (UPI Photo/Roger L. Wollenberg) | Slideshow
