I think he is correct on this though. The $2000 checks is putting a whole lot of money in the wrong place.
His statement on this seems quite reasonable:
"He has also said repeatedly that when the Biden administration comes in they can assess the needs of the American people and submit proposals to Congress about how to best address those needs," the statement continued. "When the time comes, Senator Manchin will evaluate those proposals. He has also made clear that the focus when delivering economic relief must be on those who are unemployed through no fault of their own.”
