Bernie Sanders Wants to Hold Joe Manchin to His Word on Coming Out Against BBB with a Floor Vote

As Landon covered on Sunday morning, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) shared on “Fox News Sunday” that he will not vote for the $1.75 trillion reconciliation spending bill, also known as President Joe Biden’s Build Back Better Act. Since Democrats could not afford to lose a single Democrat in the 50-50 Senate, Manchin has killed the bill. That being said, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), who caucuses with the Democrats and is chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, still wants it to come up for a vote so he can put Manchin on record.
