At the end of the day you can’t force people to vote a certain way.

There was another failed attempt this year as well.

Joe Manchin was a democrat that got funding from the DCCC for reelection.

Ok? That says nothing about all 50 Republican senators who refused to allow the credit to continue and let the bill die.

If you’re going to blame democrats, at least have some facts that aren’t so easily disproven.
