Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa today made the following comment on the President’s veto of legislation to approve the Keystone XL pipeline.
“I’m disappointed President Obama vetoed the bipartisan, broadly supported Keystone approval legislation. He said Congress ‘cut short’ his review, even though it’s been more than 2,340 days since the application for the permit was filed. That’s a long time to make a decision. It’s no way to benefit our economy and our energy security.”
More detail on Grassley’s position is available here.
