Today, during debate on the FY 2009 Omnibus Appropriations bill,  the Senate
rejected an amendment by Senator John McCain (R-AZ) that would have
negatively impacted libraries by keeping funding at FY 2008 levels through
the end of this fiscal year on September 30.

The Senate will continue debate on the FY 2009 omnibus with a possible vote
as early as Thursday
