Moolenaar Statement on President Obama's Veto of the Keystone XL Pipeline Legislation

February 24, 2015

Today, President Obama vetoed Senate Bill 1, the Keystone XL Pipeline Approval Act. The legislation has bipartisan support in Congress and from a majority of Americans.

"This afternoon the president vetoed the bipartisan Keystone Pipeline bill, refusing to approve a project that supports good-paying jobs for hard-working Americans and improves our nation's energy security. Congress should override his veto and approve this project for the benefit of our country," said Moolenaar.

Moolenaar is the U.S. Representative for Michigan's Fourth Congressional District. His official House website is online at Moolenaar.House.Gov, and on Facebook at Facebook.com/RepMoolenaar.
