[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At least now the coal miner's union is angry with Manchin. They asked him to reconsider and sign on to BBB.[/quote] He's not going to do that. A) Their Black Lung rider is an easier add-on to any bipartisan legislation that passes in 2022. Will get both Dem and GOP support no questions asked. B) The Black Lungs Benefits Trust only costs $2 million a year to administer, $20 million total for a 10-year extension. Otherwise everything is funded by an excise tax on corporation profits in the areas affected by black lung. Unlike the Squad he's not an idiot. Trading $20 million for $1.75 Trillion is a fool's proposition. https://www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov/files/general/budget/2021/CBJ-2021-V2-08.pdf[/quote] Guess what’s in the IRA Act? Told ya.
