"While congressional Democrats pursue a new bill to fast-track the permitting process for natural-gas projects, including pipelines, a Hill staffer tells TYT that progressives are being shut out of talks.

The bill was promised to Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) by Sen. Maj. Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) in exchange for Manchin supporting the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Signed into law last week by Pres. Joe Biden, the IRA is a scaled-back version of his Build Back Better agenda, with $369 billion in climate and energy provisions.

As part of their deal, Schumer promised Manchin that his separate pipeline permitting bill would get a vote, possibly next month if attached to an appropriations bill to keep the federal government funded beyond Sept. 30.

Some members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, notably Natural Resources Committee Chair Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-AZ), have already said they won’t help fulfill Schumer’s pledge to pass the Manchin bill. And last week, environmental advocates told TYT that they’re launching public campaigns to build public pressure for blocking the bill, which is expected to have a disproportionate impact on Black, Brown, Indigenous, and low-income communities."
