Joe Manchin targeted by liberal dark money group on DC statehood bill
Fox News
A liberal dark money group is using ads to pressure Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., into supporting the progressive push to make Washington, D.C. America’s 51st state.
The ad compared West Virginia to D.C., claiming "out-of-touch elites" have forgotten about both. It also claimed that Manchin could be a "hero" if he supported the unconstitutional push. "Our neighbors in the District of Columbia are taxpaying Americans who take pride in their work and their home state, just like West Virginians," said the ad. "Except their home isn’t a state at all. The same out-of-touch elites who forget about West Virginia have forgotten about D.C." DC STATEHOOD BILL COULD BE HEADED TO THE LEGISLATIVE LANDFILLMore Related News
