Manchin engaging with Biden administration on new climate and economic bill but timeline unclear
CNN
Manchin and the Biden administration are having conversations about several items that could be included in a climate and economic plan.
Democrats and climate advocates have stressed the importance of passing clean energy measures while Democrats have a majority in the Senate -- albeit slim -- as the climate crisis takes an increasing toll on Americans and US infrastructure.
After informal conversations over the weekend, the White House engaged with Manchin on several items that could be included in a plan. A source familiar with the talks told CNN these conversations are still in their infancy and the ideas aren't close to being finalized.

A number of Jeffrey Epstein survivors voiced their concern in a private meeting with female Democratic lawmakers earlier this week about the intermittent disclosure of Epstein-related documents and photos by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee, sharing that the selective publication of materials was distressing, four sources familiar with the call told CNN.
