I mainly caught that from Manchin himself, who quite clearly stated that he'd vote for a codification of Roe, but nor for this bill. Apparently the two Republicans said similar things.

"It wipes 500 state laws off the books" is what Manchin said. I did not fact-check that, for sure.


--- In general, I would have expected the Democrats to take their best shot. This does not have the appearance of being a best shot.
