FYI – Joe Manchin actually likes some of individual policies in the Build Back Better package, giving Democrats hope for turning some of those ideas into law. Take a look at 14 policies that were in the plan and where Manchin stands on each 👇
What’s in the BBB:
The demise of the expansion would mean the end of payments for millions of children whose families would no longer qualify. The maximum credit would fall to $2,000 from $3,600, it would revert to a yearly benefit instead of a monthly payment and a work requirement for parents would be reinstated.Manchin wanted fewer upper-income households to qualify for the benefit and said the work requirement should be brought back.
“No family should have to choose between keeping the lights on and putting food on the table for their children,” the West Virginia Democrat said this summer, touting the fact that the $1.9 trillion pandemic aid package Biden signed in March extended the payments “to ensure our students and children in childcare don’t go hungry during the summer months.”$555 billion for tackling climate change and reducing U.S.
Democrats had previously touted the amount as “the largest investment in conservation since the Dust Bowl.”Manchin’s opposition to the bill’s climate provisions have largely ignored the agriculture policies. Senate Agriculture Chair Debbie Stabenow and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack have been in talks with Manchin this fall, making a push to keep the agriculture items intact.
The House bill also would allocate more than $2 billion to improve “walkability, safety, and affordable transportation access” in neighborhoods and $4 billion to improve greenhouse gas emissions on roads.The senator hasn’t specifically taken aim at the transportation funding, but enactment in November of the $550 billion infrastructure package reduces the pressure to put more federal cash toward transportation projects.The Meta sign is displayed at its company headquarters in Menlo Park, Calif.
Most recently, the senator has insisted Congress pass paid leave in a bipartisan measure, to allow for the input of Republicans and employers.
