Quietly Released Energy Dept. Report Admits Mistake in Canceling Keystone XL Pipeline

A congressionally mandated Keystone XL Pipeline report reveals the energy project would have added significantly more economic benefit than earlier estimated.

“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-MT) said in a Thursday statement. “Unfortunately, the administration continues to pursue energy production anywhere but the United States.”

The Keystone XL report, completed in late December without public announcement, acknowledges the pipeline project would have created between 16,149 and 59,000 jobs. Keystone would have also added an economic impact of between $3.4-9.6 billion, the report revealed, citing various studies.

And the claim about the jobs is objectively bullshit. How do I know? Because the company that was going to build it said so.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow You mean the government is lying! Wonder what else the government is lying about....
@sunsporter1649 More like your source is lying. You can't make up your mind what you support. You blindly shill for the corporations, but blindly accept a single document from the government you hate every other minute when it conforms with your feelings.

Nevermind the sheer idiocy of someone who claims to have served in the military hating their own nation.

@sunsporter1649 🤦‍♂️You were dropped on your head as a child. Weren't you?
@sunsporter1649 Actually what appears to have happened and far more likely is a Canadian company lied to the USA or exaggerated the benefits to get the contract. Real simple stuff.

A foreign corporation is under no obligation to be honest with your government.
