John, Joe Manchin
isn’t interested in passing any of our progressive priorities. And the
Squad knew it from the very beginning. Here’s Manchin joking about
obstructing progressive policies in Build Back Better yesterday:
[ [link removed]- ]Tweet from reporter Manu Raju reads Sen. Joe Manchin, asked about Build
Back Better, said: 'What Build Back Better bill? I don’t know what you
guys are talking about.' I asked him if he’s had any talks on the matter
since December. 'No, no, no, no. It’s dead.'
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez didn’t like Manchin’s apathy in the face of
millions who need Democrats to act. Here’s her response:
[ [link removed]- ]Tweet from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reads Seniors, kids, & people with
disabilities in my community have been sleeping with bubble jackets on in
18 degree nights, despite paying rent, bc the NYCHA funding to fix their
heating and capital needs is in BBB. Where should I direct them to wait
out the cold? Manchin’s yacht?
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Cori Bush, Jamaal Bowman, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan
Omar, and Ayanna Pressley all urged Democrats to make sure Manchin
couldn’t pass his bipartisan infrastructure bill WITHOUT also passing
Build Back Better. The Squad even voted against the establishment. But the
corporate Democratic Party passed the infrastructure bill anyways. And now
the core social and economic reforms of the Democratic agenda are (still)
being blocked by Manchin.

politics, and the ones that will truly fight for economic, social, racial,
and environmental justice. Can you chip in a $3 donation

Party?

Last year, corporate Democrats joined with Republicans to put climate
action, universal pre-K, paid leave, and Medicare expansion at risk. The
Squad voted against the political establishment, and for good reason.
The Squad was right not to trust corporate Democrats like Joe Manchin.
Corporate Democrats promised the people they would pass Build Back Better
if Congress just passed a bipartisan infrastructure bill first. Now,
Manchin simply sneers at Build Back Better.
Cori, Jamaal, Alexandria, Rashida, Ilhan, and Ayanna were the only
Democrats to vote WITH THE PEOPLE.
When it comes down to it, corporate Democrats do not want to pass popular
progressive policies. It’s on the Justice Democrats in Congress — and the
grassroots movement behind them — to hold the line in the fight for
working people.
[ [link removed]- ]We need to back up the Squad. We need to show that we are the future
of the Democratic party, not the same old politicians voting with
corporate lobbyists and maintaining the status quo. Can you make a
$3 donation to Justice Democrats today to protect and
expand the Squad in Congress?
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
