Manchin continues to give fuel to the insurrectionists by fighting so hard and publicly against Joe [View all]

It just shouldn't be this hard to pass legislation for the people who work hard, pay their taxes and take on the uniform and fight on the battle fields to protect us and to protect our "democracy." This 3.5 trillion is over ten years and puts much more back into the Federal coffers than any tax cut ever passed by the GOP.

We really need to work hard to get at least two more Senators who will work for the majority of US citizens.
