Issue Position: Keystone is Good for American Workers, Energy Independence

Issue Position

Instead of taking a stand for American workers and energy independence, President Obama continues to side with far-left special interests who are stalling the Keystone XL Pipeline, which has been proven, in test after test, to be one of the safest means of transportation for resources from one of our main allies. This is the type of commonsense, job creating infrastructure project that America needs. It will create well-paying jobs for skilled laborers, at no expense to the taxpayers, and in fact has already created hundreds of jobs in Arkansas, all the while helping get oil on the market from one of our closest allies. I will continue to work with my colleagues to get the Keystone XL Pipeline moving and make President Obama stand up for the interests of hardworking Americans, instead of a small group of vocal donors.
