Manchin Wants $2 Trillion Cut from Reconciliation Bill

“Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) has privately warned the White House and congressional leaders that he has specific policy concerns with President Biden’s $3.5 trillion social spending dream — and he’ll support as little as $1 trillion of it,” Axios reports.

“At most, he’s open to supporting $1.5 trillion.”

“Manchin also has committed to paying for any new spending with new revenue, which will limit the ultimate size of any final package.”
