Washington, January 18, 2012 | J.R. Davis ((202) 225 - 4301)
WASHINGTON—Congressman Steve Womack released the following statement regarding President Obama’s decision...
Congressman Steve Womack released the following statement regarding President Obama’s decision on the Keystone XL Pipeline:

    “I am disappointed—though not surprised by the President’s decision to delay the Keystone XL.  It is clear that he is more interested in his re-election than the creation of thousands of jobs and policies that provide energy independence for America.”

    “The Keystone XL had broad, bi-partisan support and was enthusiastically embraced by an overwhelming majority of my constituents.”

    “Everywhere I go, people are asking ‘where are the jobs?’  This President isn’t interested in jobs until after his re-election.  That is sad.”
