The top Republican on the Ways and Means Committee voted for the Democrats' jobs bill on Thursday.
Rep. Dave Camp (Mich.) was one of only six Republicans who supported the $15 billion measure and the only member of GOP leadership to back it.
A Camp voted for the bill because of "Michigan’s unemployment rate – highest in the nation for the last 4 years," according to Camp's spokesman.
The other Republicans who supported the bill were: Reps. Joseph Cao (La.), John Duncan (Tenn.), Vernon Ehlers (Mich.), Tim Murphy (Pa.) and Don Young (Alaska).
