(WASHINGTON, DC) - Indiana senators on Capitol Hill support the financial bailout package for Wall Street.

Republican Dick Lugar and Democrat Evan Bayh voted yes on a revised plan. Bayh says there are no good options, and the current plan is far better than the original proposal.

Lugar says failure to pass the plan would lead to massive unemployment and failure of small business and farming operations in Indiana.

The final vote in the senate was 74 to 25. A vote in the House is expected tomorrow.
