MSNBC host Al Sharpton to lobby Manchin on far-left voting bill: Report
Fox News
MSNBC left-wing anchor Al Sharpton is reportedly lobbying Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., in hopes of convincing the senator to support the sprawling For the People Act voting legislation.
The news was first reported by New York Times reporter Astead Herndon. Fox News reached out to Manchin’s office to confirm the details but has not yet received a response. Manchin published an op-ed Sunday announcing his opposition to Democrat-backed voting rights bill S.1, known as the For the People Act, and restated his opposition to eliminating the filibuster. The news was a blow to President Biden and Democrats as any major legislation will need the support of at least 10 Republicans to overcome the filibuster.More Related News
