Senator Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., has faced criticism for his stance on the Inflation Reduction Act, which he believes the Biden administration is ignoring the debt and deficit implications of. In his op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal, Manchin called on President Biden to implement the act as it was written and to negotiate serious reforms to the federal budget.
However, some on the right have criticized his position, arguing that he enabled the administration with the bill. Manchin defended his position on “”Fox News Sunday,”” arguing that the administration should adhere to the intent and how the bill was written.
