Politics Alert: Sen. Manchin launches new push for ‘all of the above’ energy bill
| Sen. Joe Manchin III (D-W.Va.) has restarted talks with fellow Democrats about reviving the party's climate and social spending bill, according to two people familiar with the matter, as administration officials search for oil and gas policies that could make the measure more palatable to him. Manchin, who has traveled in the past week with Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm and Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, has told staff and colleagues that the legislation must be voted on before senators leave town in August, according to these individuals, who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe private conversations. It is unclear whether the party can coalesce around a set of policies by then, they added. |
