Yesterday,\r\nI had a pleasant meeting with Judge Amy Coney Barrett to discuss her\r\nexperience, record, and thoughts on issues that will impact West Virginians.\r\nDespite her impressive background and credentials, Judge Barrett offered no\r\ncontrast to her prior views and writings about the Affordable Care Actwhich\r\ncontinue to give me serious concerns if she were to sit on the U.S. Supreme\r\nCourt. If confirmed, she will rule on the Texas vs. Californiacase\r\nthat will determine the future of healthcare for vulnerable West Virginians and\r\nAmericans, including 800,000 West Virginians with preexisting conditions. I\r\nwill closely examine the Senate Judiciary hearings and encourage West\r\nVirginians to as well. In the history of\r\nour country, a Supreme Court justice has never been confirmed this close to a\r\npresidential election. Mitch McConnell's unprecedented rush for confirmation is\r\nfanning the flames of division at a time when Americans are deeply divided. I\r\noppose this process and breaking the precedent that we have adhered to for more\r\nthan 240 years.\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\n\t  \n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t \n\t\t\n\t\t\tPrint\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tEmail\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\tTweet\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t \n\t\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n    \n\t\n\t\n    \n    \n    \n    \t\n    \t\n\t    \t  \n\t\t    \n\t\t    \tNext Article\n\t\t    \n\t\t    \n\t\t    \tPrevious Article", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.manchin.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/yesterday-manchin-met-with-supreme-court-nominee-amy-coney-barrett"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.646824948489666, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
