'We Don't Owe Joe Manchin Anything!' says OurRevolution StopTheDirtyDeal via commondreams
"The science is clear," said one climate campaigner."If we want a habitable planet, we cannot afford this dirty deal."Just as it was reported Friday that the White House has been pressuring lawmakers in Congress to back the inclusion of a fossil fuel permitting side deal in a must-pass funding package this month, Senator Ed Markey became the latest to voice his opposition to the controversial proposal opposed by climate campaigners.
"I will be talking with my colleagues about whether this package can reflect the values of environmental justice," the Massachusetts Democrat continued."As a way forward is discussed, and especially as new anti-environment proposals are being brought to the permitting discussions, we should not attach the permitting overhaul package to the must-pass government funding legislation."said its member were mobilizing to stop the deal in its tracks.
For his part, Grijalva told the outlet:"We understand the White House's consternation. Maybe they are upset about the fact that this has not been going as it was planned."that he would be an adamant"no" on the CR if the permitting reforms put forward by Manchin—and backed by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer —are included.
In his mind, Khanna said"the IRA was the compromise" legislation and there's simply no way the permitting side deal, negotiated behind closed doors, should be allowed passage.
