Manchin willing to vote on reconciliation bill
United States Senator from West Virginia Joe Manchin stated on Wednesday that he is willing to vote on the social spending package financed through reconciliation whenever the Democratic leadership decides to do so.
Manchin put the ball back into the court of the Senate and House leadership, saying that he wasn’t in charge of the timing of the bill but signaling if the Democrats are ready to vote then they should vote.
This is a bit of a departure from Manchin’s previous comments on the topic, where he reportedly advocated for slowing down the bill in light of increasing inflation.
