Sen. Joe Manchin’s refusal to back a climate change package that is the centerpiece of Joe Biden’s plan to shift away from carbon-based energy production and dramatically reduce emissions to meet global objectives is endangering passage of a bipartisan infrastructure bill already passed in the Senate as well as the president’s larger $3.5 trillion social spending measure.

John Tester of Montana is also making noises that he not happy with the “fight Climate Change” portions of the bill

They will pass something. Congress never passes up an opportunity to make bad worse. However it maybe will not be the 120 mile an hour screaming toward the cliff disaster the Marxist wing of the Democrat party wants

So why did they think a Senator from a major coal-producing state would go along with this?

They’ll settle for the 65mph speed limit version, which will still take the vehicle off the cliff

Probably because Democrats don’t normally care about the people they represent, after all Biden ended our energy independence.

If Manchin chooses to kick the coal miners in the nuts, his time is over.

Hmmm Why would a senator from W Virginia oppose a plan to get rid of coal?
