WASHINGTON — Rep. Barney Frank said Wednesday he believes the Senate would approve the financial rescue plan that night. All along, he said, he was told the bill had more support among Senate Republicans than it had among House Republicans.
He said he expected the bill to be brought to the House floor Friday morning.
While most of the communications he has received from constituents have been in opposition to the bill, he’s heard from a number of industry leaders in the area who are concerned that it will not pass.
