Democrats' failure to support this legislation is a prime example of the dysfunction in Washington and how their policies have hurt our economy. Americans hungry for work could have benefitted long ago if the democrats and the president had listened, as multiple studies, now confirmed, showed that building the pipeline is the most environmentally friendly method of transporting oil from Canada. By not acting, we have needlessly irritated our closest neighbor and failed to help Americans lower their energy costs and reduce dependence on oil from foreign sources.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
