The United Association of Union Plumbers and Pipefitters (UA) issued the following statement today following the news that the Biden-Harris Administration plans to rescind the permit and effectively end construction on the Keystone XL pipeline:

“In revoking this permit, the Biden Administration has chosen to listen to the voices of fringe activists instead of union members and the American consumer on Day 1. Let me be very clear: When built with union labor by the men and women of the United Association, pipelines like Keystone XL remain the safest and most efficient modes of energy transportation in the world. Sadly, the Biden Administration has now put thousands of union workers out of work. For the average American family, it means energy costs will go up and communities will no longer see the local investments that come with pipeline construction,” said Mark McManus, General President of the United Association.

“New advancements in technology mean that these pipelines are a low-carbon method of energy transportation and a critical part of delivering affordable energy while achieving our shared climate goals. Keystone XL would not only be constructed entirely by union labor, but it would be the first pipeline fully powered by renewable energy.”

They got stabbed in the back on Day 1, so much for their dues being donated to the guy who just fired them all.

Yes. And girl's sports are history now with "chicks" with dicks in locker rooms easily winning most major competitions going forward and free to check out all the pussy they want. Great success!

If politicians claim they will do something that is going to harm you, they will actually do it.
If they claim they will do something that will benefit you, they won't do it.

Pretty simple.

These pipelines all have shut off options every X number of miles. I really don't understand why democrats are averse to this topic.


The reason is that Warren Buffet owns the railroad operations currently transporting oil from Alaska to the refineries in the lower-48. Oil pipelines are not only safer and less prone to catastrophic accidents like derailment fire on railroads, but also far more energy efficient (i.e. lower CO2 footprint) than railroad shipping; the logic for solar power and electric over internal combustion engines (higher initial investment but lower energy cost over life time) seems to have turned upside-down on transporting oil from Alaska.
