WASHINGTON -- The bill avoiding the proverbial fiscal cliff successfully passed in both the Senate and House of Representatives, but how did Ohio's elected leaders vote?

The legislation, called the Job Protection and Recession Prevention Act of 2012, passed in the Senate early Tuesday morning, ironically in 2013, by a vote of 89 to 8.

Late Tuesday night, the House of Representatives also passed the bill, by a vote of 257 to 167.

The bill now heads to the Oval Office to be signed into law by President Barack Obama.
