Auto industry bailout: How Maryland's delegation voted

By Danny Reiter, PolitickerMD.com Reporter

The U.S. House of Congress voted Wednesday night to send $14 billion in emergency loans to Detroit automakers.

The Auto Industry Financing and Restructuring Act passed the House 237 to 170. The Maryland delegation voted 6 to 1 in favor of the bill with outgoing U.S. Rep. Wayne Gilchrest (R-Kennedyville) abstaining from the vote. The bailout measure is backed by the White House, but Senate Republicans have shown little support for the bill and are suggesting alternate solutions.

Matthews ran a gentle and issue-focused campaign against incumbent U.S. Rep. Dutch Ruppersberger (D-Baltimore).

"It was a hard environment," Matthews told PolitickerMD.com, adding it was his first bid for any elected office. "It was definitely a bad day for Republicans last night."
