But Does Sound Like Joe Manchin. It Is.

“If you were a fossil fuel lobbyist and had to construct an ideal strategy not only to kill BBB but to gum up the works for as long as possible it would look a lot like what Manchin has been doing.”

U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin came under fire Saturday after The Washington Post reported that the West Virginia Democrat “does not currently support” passing even his own recent $1.8 trillion counteroffer to President Joe Biden’s Build Back Better agenda.

“Sen. Manchin is operating in bad faith. We need to be electing Democrats who are accountable to the American people and working families — not Dems who are reneging on deals which would support millions.” Nida Allam, progressive congressional candidate in North Carolina.
