Manchin Would Oppose Eliminating the Filibuster

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) told CNN that he would oppose his party’s effort to get rid of the filibuster if Democrats take control of the chamber in November’s election.

Said Manchin: “That’s bullshit.”

He noted that he opposed the Democratic effort in 2013 to eliminate the filibuster on most presidential nominees: “And I would be opposed to it again.”
