Description

All summer long, activists have pressured Democratic leaders for a
reconciliation package that delivers on all of President Biden’s
promises. That means Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin faced
protesters in their offices, homes… and bathroom stalls. Today,
Playbook’s Tara Palmeri explores the new face of activism, and she asks
POLITICO’s co-congressional bureau chief Burgess Everett on whether the
activism is having its intended effect on Manchin and the latest on the
Democrats messy reconciliation fight.
