TL;DR Summary
Democratic Virginia Senator Tim Kaine criticized the White House for not consulting him before agreeing to include a provision in the debt ceiling bill to fast-track permitting for the Mountain Valley Pipeline project, which runs through his state. Kaine suggested that the White House consulted Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., on the provision while ignoring him. The pipeline has been 94% completed but has been slowed by a lengthy permitting process.
