The US Senate. The bailout plan is intended to help the struggling financial institutions of the US and provide them with cash (in return for the illiquid assets they have which they cannot sell in the open market) which can be used to revive the fallen economy. At a later point of time the US Fed reserve may sell these assets back to these banks and recover a part or the full bailout money.
