Rep. Rashida Tlaib, Michigan Democrat, recently told the left-leaning news outlet The American Prospect that “we sure as hell don’t owe Joe Manchin anything now.” House Natural Resources Committee Chair Raul M. Grijalva, Arizona Democrat, wrote in a Newsweek op-ed that “Democrats don’t owe anybody anything in return for passing the bill.”
Senate Republicans, longtime advocates of permitting reform, warned last month that they would not give Democrats the votes they need if legislation is tied to a stop-gap funding measure, known as a continuing resolution. That was the price to pay for Democrats forcing through their tax and climate spending law along party lines, Republicans said.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, South Carolina Republican, vowed to oppose anything “that is part of a political payback scheme.”
