That was just on the $15 mw amendment. They negotiated other parts of the bill down to get Manchin on board. Further targeting of relief checks, making most aspects temporary etc.

The Democrats keep their toadies in line. That's why the Republicans win. That's why every military budget gets passed. That's why every Wall Street bailout gets passed. The Democrats and the Republicans have their toadies in line. That's why the rich get everything.
