Joe Manchin vs the For the People Act

  • Summary

  • Joe Manchin, the Democratic Senator from West Virginia, is no stranger to voting against the Democratic Party line, calling himself a “moderate conservative Democrat”. 


    With a 50/50 split in the US Senate, Joe Manchin has found himself to be one of the most influential people in American politics, with the Democrats needing his support to pass any legislation. 

    Manchin has made waves this week by not supporting the For the Peoples Act, a reformative voting act which the Democrats are trying to pass. But who is Joe Manchin? Why is he against this reformative act? And how has he become one, if not the most influential man on Capitol Hill? 


    We sit down to discuss this and ask, will Joe Manchin be the thorn in the side of the Biden administration?
