Saturday morning, on a vote of 72-to-13, the U.S. Senate passed the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (H.R. 3221).
The Senate chose not to amend the House-passed bill. It now goes to President Bush, who is expected to sign it.
You can read more about the act at the House Financial Services Committee page or the Democratic Policy Committee page.
