Obama Rejects Keystone Pipeline


The Obama Administration rejected the Keystone oil pipeline on Wednesday, claiming there was not enough time to review an alternate route to avoid a Nebraska aquifer within a 60-day deadline set by Congress. Republicans passed legislation in December to require the deadline, believing the pipeline necessary for the country's jobs and energy needs. "I'm disappointed that Republicans in Congress forced this decision," President Barack Obama said.
