Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), a key moderate Democrat, said on Sunday that he can’t support President Biden’s $3.5 trillion spending plan, The Hill reports.
Said Manchin: “We don’t have the need to rush into this and get it done within one week because there’s some deadline we’re meeting or someone’s going to fall through the cracks.”
Meanwhile, the AP reports the White House is “comfortable with settling for a lower price tag… so long as the end result produces a tax system that voters judge as fair.”
