Building power for working people

Joe Manchin Got $1 Million From Corporate-Tied PACs

Senator Manchin has chosen corporate executives over coal workers and Build Back Better.

The West Virginia Senator claims to be working in the best interest of constituents. Instead, he’s in the pocket corporations. While putting up continuous roadblocks to Build Back Better, Joe Manchin accepted money from corporate PACs.

A conservative group run by Mike Pence’s chief of staff spent $400,000 each week on ads supporting Manchin’s defensive attitude toward the bill. He published his opposition in the Wall Street Journal as the paper rolled out daily editorials promoting his position.

Manchin has held up voting rights legislation and continues to compromise for corporate support.
