I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again to remove any shred of doubt. There’s no circumstance in which I will vote to eliminate or weaken the filibuster. The time has come to end these political games, and who usher in a new era of…
Joe Manchin
The Public Record
Joe Manchin is a United States Senator from West Virginia, serving since 2010. A member of the Democratic Party, he previously held the position of Governor of West Virginia from 2005 to 2010. Manchin is known for his centrist approach and has often positioned himself as a bridge between moderate Democrats and Republicans in the Senate. His legislative focus includes issues such as infrastructure, energy policy, and healthcare.
Joe Manchin from West Virginia, for example, a key swing vote in the Senate has said recently that he’s willing to raise that corporate tax rate to about 25%, but not higher.
I will never, ever agree to filibuster changes no matter what that means for Biden's agenda or what it means for his own constituents.
I think corporate should have been at 25 percent. As the bill exists today, it needs to be changed. If I don’t go to get on it, it’s not going anywhere.
I will not support a key part of the plan that raises the corporate tax rate from 21 to 28 percent. The rate should be 25 percent.
This bill will not be in the form you see introduced or see people talking about it. And if I don`t vote to get on it, it`s not going anywhere. So we`re going to have some leverage here. And that`s more than just me, Hoppy, there`s six of…
Joe Manchin's actual public position right now is that he cares more about what politicians in other states do than what his own constituents support.
The modern Republican Party has no interest in contributing its ideas to legislation that's going to be passed by Joe Biden. Its only idea is to make sure that Joe Biden fails.
Pushing through legislation of this magnitude on a partisan basis may garner short term benefits, but will inevitably only exacerbate the distrust that millions of Americans harbor against the U.S. government.
He said today that he does not want to sign on to support this sweeping voting-rights bill that will afford federal protection to voting rights.
Innovation will also be key to re-establishing America's leadership in nuclear energy.
I appreciate your curiosity on nuclear. I think you made some really great points.
The Biden Administration must take decisive action to prevent this from happening.
I really believe we are missing a golden opportunity if we do not get back in action.
This bill established a network for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to approve advanced nuclear reactor designs.
I want to thank you all for being here. It is going to be a very important meeting that we have today.
That is why Senators Whitehouse, Crapo, Booker, and I introduced the American Nuclear Infrastructure Act.
Congress must pass legislation that allows states to have buy-in when it comes to the nuclear repository site selection and construction.
We still have a lot of work ahead of us. The public remains cautious about nuclear energy.
We passed the Energy Act with the Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program (ARDP), which was spearheaded by Senator Murkowski.
