Joe Manchin actually said...

"If you are exposed, you are exposed. We do not care whether it is blue, brown, purple, green, yellow water, whatever it is."

"You would not have a vote that you had so strong out of the House if the people believed that."

"I am also for eliminating that, so if there is a duplication that we have that allows you all to declare an emergency within a week or two and not give us enough notice, we will do away with that one."

"I assume this bill is going to pass, probably, if it comes out and goes to the floor."
