Senator Joe Manchin voted against providing historic tax relief for West Virginia families and businesses.
Manchin’s reckless vote comes despite this legislation delivering thousands of dollars in tax relief for middle-class families, creating an atmosphere that fosters new job growth and ensuring American businesses can grow and compete. Manchin’s decision is sure to be unpopular with West Virginia voters, who just last year voted for Republicans’ promise of smaller government and lower taxes.
“Senator Manchin revealed that his loyalty lies with Chuck Schumer and Washington Democrats, instead of hardworking West Virginia families and businesses,” said NRSC Spokesman Bob Salera. “West Virginians won’t forget that when Joe Manchin had the opportunity to put more money in their pockets, he folded to the demands of his party bosses in Washington.”
