The US House of Representatives gave its final approval to the biggest overhaul of Wall Street rules since the Great Depression of the 1930s, leaving the landmark bill in the Senate's hands.
Lawmakers voted 237-192, along party lines, to give regulators an arsenal of new weapons against risky investment practices blamed for the 2007-2009 global financial meltdown and hand President Barack Obama a major political win.
