Years of rigorous scrutiny by independent experts and his own State Department have concluded that building Keystone XL will not have a significant negative environmental impact. Nevertheless, President Obama has chosen to pander to a small group of radical environmentalists, rather than move forward with constructing a major infrastructure project to boost our economy. The Keystone pipeline is supported by an overwhelming majority of Americans. On this policy, President Obama has gotten it dead wrong. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
