Shelley Moore Capito Hits Joe Manchin for Striking Deal

Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) told Politico she was “very surprised” to see her fellow West Virginian, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), strike a climate and energy, tax and health care deal with Democrats this week, knocking it as “not good for our state.”

Said Capito: “I was surprised. It has taxes going up. It has Green New Deal. It’s bigger than he had led us to imagine. It’s not good for our state. So yeah, I was very surprised.”
