Joe Manchin has urged Joe Biden to work with Kevin McCarthy on a compromise to raise the debt ceiling.Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has said the House bill is “dead on arrival” in the upper chamber, and the White House has also derided the legislation, vowing Biden will veto it.
“It has now been 85 days since the President sat down with the Speaker,” Manchin said. “Only the President can prevent this from becoming a full-blown domestic crisis. For the sake of our nation that we all serve, I urge the President to put politics and partisanship aside, come to the table and negotiate a real compromise that saves America from this impending economic catastrophe.”
Manchin’s statement came on the same day Republican West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice filed to run for the US Senate in a bid to replace the vulnerable Democratic incumbent in 2024.The Republican-controlled House narrowly passed a McCarthy-led bill to raise the nation’s borrowing limit.Justice has higher approval ratings among Mountain State Democrats than Manchin, who has not announced his 2024 plans and has said no decision will come until December.
“I am laser-focused on doing the job West Virginians elected me to do — lowering healthcare costs, protecting Social Security and Medicare, shoring up American energy security, and getting our fiscal house in order,”Manchin, a former West Virginia governor, has represented the state in the Senate since 2010, when he won a special election to replace the late Democratic Sen. Robert Byrd.
