Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of the coal state of West Virginia warned the Trump administration against moving too fast, too soon on rolling back environmental rules or risk a similar backlash as the Obama administration.
“I’ve told this administration, I think the Obama administration was a far reach,” Manchin told an energy forum Wednesday. “If you retract, you’ll have as much pushback retracting too far as they did overreaching too far.”
