President Joe Biden has issued an Executive Order to halt construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline. Congresswoman Elise Stefanik responded in a statement reading, “One of my first votes in Congress was to authorize the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, a project with bipartisan support that reduces energy costs, creates thousands of jobs, increases America’s economic competitiveness, and enhances our energy independence. It is appalling that one of President Biden’s first actions, after repeatedly calling for unity, is to kill tens of thousands of American jobs during an economic crisis.”
