Sen. Joe Manchin blasted President Biden Thursday for refusing to negotiate with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy over the nation’s fast-approaching debt ceiling crisis — while praising the Republican leader for putting out a proposal to cut federal spending.
“For the sake of the country, I urge President Biden to come to the table, propose a plan for real and substantive spending cuts and deficit reduction, and negotiate now. House Republicans’ proposal would reduce discretionary spending for non-defense programs back to fiscal year 2022 levels and limit the growth of future expenditures to 1% annually over the next 10 years.
