A few months ago, I made a very ignorant pro Manchin comment, based solely on the fact that he was a Democrat. I would like to thank you for educating me.

Like I wrote elsewhere, the people of WV, like those of the other red states, always pay less than their fair share for federally financed programs, the blue states subsidize them.

Manchin is owned outright by the coal mining industry, even the UMW members are against the games he's been playing around the BBB.

WV ranks dead last amongst states in non-farm jobs created in the past 10 years and more recently:

How their Senator can be against a program that will create jobs immediately is a mystery for the ages.

These numbers are stunning.
