Senate backs compromise energy bill amid recess push
The Senate approved a two stage energy measure 33 to eight as part of a last minute push before Christmas.

Senate aides and White House staff worked in Mansfield and Ford offices to craft the compromise amid a White House veto threat and a near empty chamber.
