(WTRF) - Vice President Mike Pence took to Twitter to express his displeasure toward Senator Joe Manchin's actions on Wednesday afternoon using the hashtag #JoeVotedNo.
In a series of official tweets, the Vice President explained that he believes that "WV needs to let him know that they EXPECT BETTER & they need to let Joe know that WEST VIRGINIA DESERVES BETTER".
.@Sen_JoeManchin is going to keep voting against West Virginia & I think Chuck Schumer & Nancy Pelosi are pretty happy w/ the way he votes. But WV needs to let him know that they EXPECT BETTER & they need to let Joe know that WEST VIRGINIA DESERVES BETTER. #JoeVotedNo
Vice President Pence used the hashtag #JoeVotedNo to express times when Manchin voted against things like the Republican Tax Bill, to "repeal & replace the disaster of Obamacare", to defund Planned Parenthood, and to securing our borders with a wall.
I was in WV a few months ago & I spoke to the WV Chamber of Commerce. @Sen_JoeManchin was there – & I looked him in the eye and I told him, “Joe, the people of the Mountain State are counting on you,” so let’s “get this tax cut done together.” But #JoeVotedNo.
When the time came to repeal & replace the disaster of Obamacare, Joe voted NO. When we empowered West Virginia to defund Planned Parenthood, Joe voted NO. And when it comes to securing our Southern border, Joe said, “I’m not voting for the wall, either.” #JoeVotedNo
When it came time to vote on sweeping tax cuts that helped West Virginians keep more of their money & made it possible for companies like Worldwide Equipment to invest more in their workers, @SenCapito voted YES & #JoeVotedNo
