"Senator Joe Manchin joined with Republicans to kill the childcare tax credit because Manchin reportedly believed that caregivers were using the money to purchase illegal drugs. A new study by the US Census Bureau released on Tuesday reports that child poverty nearly doubled as a result of the termination of benefits by Manchin and the GOP." ~ Robert B. Hubbell Not to be forgotten: Manchin is a pro-life Catholic, a Knight of Columbus. #Manchin #ChildPoverty https://roberthubbell.substack.com/p/mccarthys-sham-impeachment-inquiry
@f884fa2b All the more reason, with surge happening NOW, to reinstate the COVID Emergency. Where is Biden? He signs a 9/11 Emergency renewal annually. But not for this?? (Yes, fuck Manchin and his RepugniQan/fascist friends. Sinema too.)
@f884fa2b Manchin does make a valid point though; after all, West Virginia's brag is being the Methhead State. https://assets.newsie.social/media_attachments/files/111/058/268/844/520/364/original/812f03fb2a57d727.jpg
