Press Release

Location: Washington, DC

U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) joined Sean Spicer on Newsmax last night to discuss the Keystone XL pipeline and President Biden's military budget. The senator highlighted his Protecting Our Well-being by Expanding Russian Sanctions (POWERS) Act, a bill to build on recently-passed bipartisan sanctions against Russia and reinstate sanctions the Biden Administration is waiving on Russian people and entities involved in the construction of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline.

On Keystone XL Pipeline:

"At a time when we're trying to stimulate the economy with a large infrastructure package, here's one that doesn't cost the taxpayer a penny. They don't have to raise anybody's taxes, don't have to borrow any money. You just have to let the private sector and private capital follow the demand. Unfortunately that's not how the Biden Administration sees it."

On the President's Military Budget:

"It's not enough to keep up with China, especially not enough to keep up with China and Russia together. Throw in North Korea and Iran, and you've really got a quagmire. On top of all that, the one pipeline Joe Biden did greenlight was the Nord Stream 2 pipeline to benefit Russia."
