Walberg Votes to Move Forward with Keystone XL Pipeline

Washington, D.C. – Today, Rep. Walberg voted for H.R. 5682 to provide immediate authority for the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, an energy infrastructure project that has been delayed for over six years. H.R. 5682 passed on a strong bipartisan vote of 252-161.

"Bipartisan support for the pipeline continues to grow while the Obama Administration and the Senate have blocked every effort over the last six years to pass this important energy infrastructure and boost our economy. The Senate and President are out of excuses – let's approve the Keystone pipeline and begin construction on this project that will create jobs and lower energy costs," said Rep. Walberg following the vote.
