Oh no!!!! I heard America will blow up if this spending bill is not

[AmericanAntiCorruptionAct]

IMAGINE HOW STRONG OUR COUNTRY WOULD BE IF CONGRESS SPENT THEIR DAYS WORKING FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ELECTED THEM INSTEAD OF THE PEOPLE WHO BUY THEM.

[LilShorts]

Maybe the only Democrat I would support

[blake]

He is doing his job!! Over 60% of West Virginians don't want this bill. What a novel doing what the majority of your constituents

[michaelhealy]

Good he is looking out for the people. A rarity in DC.

[johnwest]

Proud to be from West Virginia and I know I voted for the right man West Virginia decided it all

[Garapetsa]

I just sent him an email of thanks.
Let's all send him a thank you.

Good. About time someone with some restraint and intelligence put a stop to this nonsense. These people are out of control.

[bill]

Finally someone who sees through the bs and, as expected, Democrats in office have a fit

[jlm]

A Democrat with a spine who would have thought!!

[veryhandymann]

THATS GREAT. Now my Great Great Grandkids won't be paying it back

[Korgon]

You eventually run out of other people’s money…

[wetdog]

The only democrat who understands money

[bryanb]

This should not be shocking. Manchin has to vote no if he wants to have any chance to keep his job. Trump won West Virginia by 39 percentage points in 2020.

[secondamendmentconservativ]

Every American Patriot says NO to the "build back better" socialist bill !!!!

[RogueJedi]

I’m surprised to see a Democrat with guts to stand up to this failure of legislation

[tommywhite]

Hey Biden you better get some medicine because that is gonna leave a mark.

[ouch]

Senator Manchin, America's Newest Hero!!

[juliewaltermeyer]

So very proud that a Democrat stands on his morals. To many others are disgraceful for not standing and saying no that would hurt to many people!!!!

[himonwillard]

There comes a time when good men will have to stand up and do bad things to end this tyranny.
