FRIDAY, JULY 20, 2001 In a victory for the Bush administration, the House on Thursday approved a bill seeking to funnel more federal funds to religious groups. By a vote of 233 to 198, the House passed the faith-based initiative bill. The vote came a day after Democrats and some moderate Republicans said they were worried religious groups would discriminate against others. The bill goes onto the Senate, where its future is uncertain. Get the Story:
