WASHINGTON (AP) - There's word that President-elect Barack Obama's team and the Bush administration may ask Congress for immediate access to the $350 billion left in a financial bailout fund approved last year.
A White House aide says the administration hasn't yet made a final decision on the request.
Obama has been discussing his economic rescue plan this week and in today's weekly address. He's also releasing his advisers' detailed analysis of the $775 billion package.
The report comes after a week of growing criticism of the tax-cut and spending package. The study estimates that Obama's plan would create 3.5 million jobs, and even details that more than 40 percent of those jobs would go to women. It also says more than 90 percent of the new jobs would come within the private sector.
