“I’m pleased….”

comments Representative Paul Cook

 

 

From Washington D C, Representative Cook (R- Apple Valley) issued the following statement about President Donald Trump’s action taken Tuesday January 24th, permitting the Keystone XL pipeline to finally move forward:

 

“I’m pleased to see that the Keystone Pipeline is a priority for the new administration. The pipeline had been held up by the Obama administration for more than six years despite initial approval by the State Department. The pipeline will help the economy by creating tens of thousands of American jobs, and it will strengthen our energy security. This is a victory for energy independence and hardworking Americans.”
