Some federal banks are one step closer to paying back money loaned to them through the US Treasury's bailout plan.
Wednesday was the first day the banks were eligible to repay the money.
US Bank gave back $6.6 million and BB & T repaid about $3.1 billion.
The two banks were among 10 that received money under former Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson's troubled asset relief program.
A total of $68 billion will be repaid.
