Donnelly has continually supported the Keystone XL pipeline by introducing bipartisan legislation to prevent lengthy delays on the project and pushing for his Opportunity Agenda that would support investments in American infrastructure that promote energy security and an all-in approach to energy production, like Keystone XL pipeline. Donnelly said, At a time when our country is making important investments in our energy economy, the Presidents decision to reject the Keystone Pipeline is disappointing. A strong energy economy is critical to our countrys economic success and our national security, and I will continue to support safe, common sense investments that strengthen our economy. Donnelly, who helped the Senate pass legislation approving the Keystone XL pipeline earlier this year, believes in an all-in approach toward American energy production as part of hisOpportunity Agenda. Donnelly thinks that we should be investing our money in energy infrastructure projects here rather than spending hundreds of billions of dollars to purchase energy from overseas. In order to invest in domestic energy infrastructure projects, there must be an efficient approval process in place. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
