And keep in mind that it's not a one-off like the $6 trillion in debt-ballooning Covid relief that Manchin has unhesitatingly voted for in the past 15 months: it's $350 billion per year over a 10-year period, designed to be entirely paid for.

Far from raising the national debt, it's supposed to raise the level of contributions of Disney, ExxonMobil, and Pfizer. Sure hope Senator Manchin isn't lying about that to pull the wool over the eyes of West Virginia voters. pic.twitter.com/VVm8aBlXNS

Also, as long as you're up, can't believe I'm finding myself agreeing with
Sirota, but this would be a really good week to get rid of the filibuster:
They probably couldn't, just like they couldn't repeal the Affordable Care Act. Congress really has a harder time doing very unpopular things than state legislatures do. That's why the GOP likes the current arrangement using states to do things and Congress to stop things.

And support the
Women's Health Protection Act!
The House will vote on a reproductive rights bill when it returns later this month, following the Supreme Court’s refusal to block one of the country’s most restrictive abortion laws that took effect in Texas this week, Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday.
The Democratic-held chamber plans to take up the Women’s Health Protection Act after lawmakers come back to Washington on Sept. 20. The legislation, led in the House by Democratic Rep. Judy Chu of California, would establish the legal right to abortion nationwide and prevent states from putting medically unnecessary restrictions on the procedures.
