In a statement, Manchin said he had “carefully reviewed” Raskin’s past statements and qualifications and concluded: “Her previous public statements have failed to satisfactorily address my concerns about the critical importance of financing an all-of-the-above energy policy to meet our nation’s critical energy needs.” Manchin, like the GOP, have criticized Raskin’s past view that the Fed should focus on the financial threats of climate change.
