Washington D.C. ____ Today,
November 6, 2015, Representative Paul Cook (R-Apple Valley) issued the
following statement in reaction to President Obama’s rejection of the Keystone
XL pipeline:
Cook said, “Until today, the President was the only obstacle standing in the
way of building the Keystone XL pipeline and putting Americans back to work.
Blocking the creation of this pipeline is a slap in the face to Americans
looking for work. This is about jobs,
jobs, and more jobs. The sad truth is that today, hardworking people lost and
wealthy environmental extremists won.”
