Manchin's Opposition to Biden's EPA Nominees Threatens Climate Plan.

President Joe Biden's regulators are expected to release a major regulation aimed at coal- and gas-burning power plants, which Republicans plan to use as evidence that the president is bent on eliminating fossil fuels. Democrats argue that the GOP's message is out of step with voters, pointing to polls showing large majorities of Americans supporting action against climate change. However, some Democrats in competitive, fossil fuel-heavy states, such as West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin, are distancing themselves from Biden's climate policies, casting votes that complicate the president's agenda.
