Senate Democrats approve their big climate and healthcare bill with a thumbs up from Manchin and Sinema
"The Senate approved a climate, healthcare, and tax package assembled by Democrats on Sunday afternoon, bringing the party one step closer to delivering on President Joe Biden's most significant domestic legislative achievement yet on combating the climate emergency, reining in the cost of prescription drugs, raising taxes on large profitable companies that pay nothing to the federal government and reducing the budget deficit.
The vote was split 50-50 with Vice President Kamala Harris casting the tie-breaking vote. Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona, a pair of longtime holdouts, threw their support behind the bill carrying the centerpiece of Biden's economic agenda. It heads to the House for a Friday vote, which will send it to Biden's desk for his signature."
