4/ Correction, it’s @angikerns2 of @_youngwv! She’s one of many West Virginians here who is just amazing.

They’re speaking for the majority: 79% of WV wants to see #BuildBackBetter passed. That includes Republican voters.

7/ In all seriousness, we thank @Sen_JoeManchin for coming out today to speak to our friends from @_youngwv and @Race_Matters_WV.

We’re hopeful that a real (land-side) talk between West Virginians might make a difference.

#BuildBackBetter #DontSinkWV
8/ @Sen_JoeManchin talks about how much the government has spent during COVID.

West Virginians respond it’s helped the economy, and that the spends in #BuildBackBetter aren’t “on the backs of ordinary people,” but rather taxing the rich + big corp, drug price negotiation etc

Here she is watching our action play out on @maddow last night! That clip coming up next…

#BuildBackBetter #DontSinkWV
11/ Thank you to @Sen_JoeManchin for specifically offering an in-person meeting on Capitol Hill today or Monday for the West Virginians of @Race_Matters_WV @_youngwv @RiseUpWV and more!

They’re looking forward to it and extending stays to ensure they’ll be in DC on Monday!

NEWS: Numerous West Virginia organizations have released a strongly worded joint statement calling on Congress to pass #BuildBackBetter.

In it, they condemn @Sen_JoeManchin for shrinking the bill and call on him to stand with Democrats to pass it now. 🧵1/ screenshots of the 2-page statement, which is quoted in this
2/ "West Virginians are counting on Democrats to ensure the #BuildBackBetterAct is passed. West Virginia needs the President’s full agenda to pass and we cannot count on our Senator to make sure it does.
3/ "For months now all eyes have been on @Sen_JoeManchin, one of only two Democrats in Congress who have opposed President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda.

Senator Manchin could have used that attention to shine a spotlight on the struggles of families across West Virginia.

🚨Statement Alert🚨 In response to the Senate Parliamentarian’s ruling on a pathway to citizenship through reconciliation, @AnaMariaArchil2 , co-executive director of the Center for Popular Democracy, issued the following statement:
“Today, the Senate Parliamentarian once again issued a misguided advisory opinion against the inclusion of a pathway to citizenship in reconciliation. However, there is precedent and a strong rationale for the immigration proposal to be included in the reconciliation bill."
If Democrats, who control the Senate, House of Representatives, and the White House choose to follow this advisory opinion, they would be shutting the doors to millions of undocumented immigrants who call this country home.

The first millennial to run for president should have reflected the overwhelming millennial desire for climate transformation and justice.

Instead, @PeteButtigieg and his campaign has chosen to use and abuse Iowa POC voters like a cheat code in a video game.

1/
@PeteButtigieg Iowan people of color worked hard to show up against all obstacles. They overwhelmingly chose @BernieSanders more than any other candidate, by far.

Instead of improving for New Hampshire, @PeteButtigieg knocked on the Democrats door to demand minimizing POC votes.

2/
@PeteButtigieg @BernieSanders When confronted by Black voters moved by tragic personal experiences to question @PeteButtigieg's policies, Mayor Pete looked them in the eye and told them he doesn't want their vote.

So they didn't give it to him. And now he wants them erased.
