Financial reform bill passes House, 237-192

Vote is split along partisan lines, with just three Republicans voting in favor and 19 Democrats against. The Senate is expected to take up the bill in mid-July.

The House on Wednesday approved the most sweeping rewrite of financial rules since the Great Depression, and last-minute changes this week appeared to solidify support in the Senate and pave the way for the legislation to reach the White House later this month.
