Cornyn Statement on President's Rejection of Keystone Pipeline
Statement
Issues: Oil and Gas
U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) issued the following statement in response to President Obama's announcement that he will not approve construction of the Keystone XL pipeline:
"The President's rejection of this shovel-ready jobs project is politics at its worst. Construction of the Keystone pipeline would create jobs, drive economic growth, and give our nation a chance to become more energy independent.
"With this decision the President has once again forced hardworking Texans and folks across the country to take a backseat to the liberal activists who have been such a driving force in his Administration."
