U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) issued the following statement after the Senate passed legislation authorizing construction of the Keystone XL pipeline with bipartisan support:
"With today's bipartisan approval of the Keystone XL jobs bill, Congress will soon present President Obama with a real opportunity to show he is truly willing to work with members of both parties to put Americans' priorities first. The President has called on Congress to pass bipartisan infrastructure projects, and soon he will have the opportunity to sign one into law."
