.Sen_JoeManchin and SenSchumer drop permitting reform, clearing way for stopgap spending bill
A stopgap bill with the permitting language did not have the 60 votes necessary to advance after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell whipped Republicans to vote against it. The legislative text of that bill, released overnight, would fund the government through Dec. 16.
The permitting reforms also faced opposition from within Manchin's own party on environmental grounds. Sen. Tim Kaine and Sen. Bernie Sanders , who caucuses with the Democrats, opposed attaching the measure to the funding bill, meaning Manchin needed to win over at least 12 Republicans to have passed them.
Manchin added that “over the last several weeks there has been broad consensus on the urgent need to address our nation’s flawed permitting system." Manchin sunk Build Back Better when he objected to its price tag and raised concerns over inflation but later surprised some Republicans with his vote. Republicans balked at supporting his permitting reform deal, which would help expedite an energy project in West Virginia, or advancing anything other than a clean continuing resolution.
