If he really is a hard no now that sucks, but they were previously refusing to accept his demand that the programs in the bill actually be 10 year programs (since they would not actually be fully paid for if extended). This change would actually make the bill better since the programs are otherwise very likely *not* going to be extended due to likely GOP control of at least one house of Congress when they expire. Manchin has been saying that this is how he wanted BBB structured for a while now; it shouldn't be coming as a surprise that it's not negotiable for him.

I don't understand how this could possibly be the case given that Manchin is also demanding that they lower the price tag of the bill. He wants them to spend less over a longer period of time? Seems incredibly bad faith.
