The Keystone Pipeline would have created thousands of good paying jobs and increased U.S. energy security. For a state like Louisiana, a leader in energy production, this news is the latest in a string of decisions out of the White House that seem to target our economy. It's increasingly clear that this Administration does not care about the hard working men and women in the energy industry. This decision will produce two outcomes: a rise in the volume of oil being transported by rail, which is more susceptible to spills than pipelines, and the continued energy dependence on Iran and other nations that do not share US values." ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
