Manchin has been especially frustrated with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission over its pursuit of Biden's longstanding climate goals.
"This was about energy security and we have not heard a word about energy security out of their mouths since it was passed. It's all about the environment," Manchin said at the time.
Manchin has been infuriated with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission over its pursuit of longstanding climate goals. And the lawmaker, who has been a key ally of the coal industry throughout his entire career, was especially frustrated by its push to craft regulations that would study climate impact asSo for the time-being, Manchin has basically kept the five-member commission from running with a Democratic majority, as it now has two members from each party and a vacancy.
Complicating matters is Manchin's precarious political position, as he is the only statewide Democratic officeholder left in West Virginia and has not yet announced his plans for reelection next year. His criticism of the White House can only serve to boost his standing in deep red West Virginia, as Biden remains unpopular in the state. The senator's attacks also hurt the standing and implementation of the law.
