Biden admin quietly admits canceling Keystone XL Pipeline cost thousands of jobs, billions of dollars

President Biden's decision to revoke pipeline's permits hurt 'working families,' Montana senator says

The Biden administration published a congressionally mandated report highlighting the positive economic benefits the Keystone XL Pipeline would have had if President Biden didn't revoke its federal permits.

The report, which the Department of Energy (DOE) completed in late December without any public announcement, says the Keystone XL project would have created between 16,149 and 59,000 jobs and would have had a positive economic impact of between $3.4-9.6 billion, citing various studies. A previous report from the federal government published in 2014 determined 3,900 direct jobs and 21,050 total jobs would be created during construction which was expected to take two years.

But immediately after taking office in January 2021, Biden canceled the pipeline's permits, effectively shutting the project down.

"The Biden administration finally owned up to what we have known all along — killing the Keystone XL Pipeline cost good-paying jobs, hurt Montana’s economy and was the first step in the Biden administration’s war on oil and gas production in the United States," Sen. Steve Daines. R-Mont., said Thursday in a statement. "Unfortunately, the administration continues to pursue energy production anywhere but the United States."

Frank Luntz told him a muscle car would be helpful to his image, so they don’t pull out the Porsche.

There was never any real reason to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline other that to placate the environmentalist whackos. Much of the pipeline was already built and the Canadian oil is still being shipped to the US by rail and truck.

The canceled Keystone XL pipeline was orchestrated in its' entirety by Barack Hussein Obama. The dim witted sloth Biden was simply following orders.

Quetly admits? When are they gping to quiet;y admit they inagurated a fraudulently elected "president." JOe Biden is no president. And he was not duly elected. The proof is in the war Biden has waged against America on all fronts, political, social and economic. To wage this war he has weaponized the DOJ, the FBI, the Dept Transportation, the EPA and parts of the US military against The People.

Biden is not our president.THats a plain fact proven by his conduct.

This man is our president:
