Joe Manchin actually said...

"We need government as our partner, not our adversary."

"I believe that it inhibits job growth and it sometimes can stymie our economic development."

"It is time for this administration to get off the backs of West Virginia's job creators by using common sense and not ideology."

"If the administration thinks their policies are helping folks across the country, I invite them to visit my state to see how their actions are hurting families across Appalachia."
