Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) said Wednesday that he could support passing a Democratic-only spending bill by the end of the year, even as he blasted a multi-trillion-dollar top-line spending bill envisioned by progressives as “fiscal insanity.”
“I think we can get a good bill done. I really do, and work in good faith,” Manchin said, when asked if he could support a Democratic-only bill this year.
“I’m fine. If we can get it done, sure. Let’s roll our sleeves up and do it,” Manchin added, when asked again about the potential timeline.
