The New York Times and CNN say that an agreement has been reached with Senator Joe Manchin on a bill dealing with a Medicare drug plan, taxes, energy, and climate change.

Negotiations to come up with a deal that Manchin can support has dragged on many months and has depressed many Democrats who feel the party has not delivered on its promises. It can be hoped that this comprimise will hold together and boost Democratic chances in the fall elections.

www.nytimes.com/… “In a statement, Mr. Manchin, who had been his party’s main holdout on an expansive social policy, climate and tax package, confirmed his support for the measure in a statement that did not provide detail on its precise elements. But in the statement, he signaled support for climate and energy programs, as well as some tax provisions, all of which he had previously suggested he could not support because of concerns about inflation.”
