Senate Poised to Debate Keystone XL Pipeline, Other Key Energy Issues
By Joshua Andrews, Michael Bolton, Andrew Ehrlich, Andrew Wheeler | Faegre Baker Daniels
In
the wake of the U.S. House of Representatives’ passage of legislation
to approve the long-stalled Keystone XL pipeline, the Senate now stands
poised to take up the measure beginning this week, opening the door to
other key energy issues. Legislation similar to the House-passed measure
was recently approved by the Senate Energy & Natural Resources
Committee and has the necessary support to avoid a filibuster. The
Keystone legislation has drawn a veto threat from the President;
however, a number of Democrats are expected to support the measure, so a
veto-proof majority is at least possible on the bill.http://breakingenergy.com/2015/01/15/senate-poised-to-debate-keystone-xl-pipeline-other-key-energy-issues/?utm_source=Breaking+Energy&utm_campaign=3e00d58019-RSS_EMAIL_CAMPAIGN&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f852427a4b-3e00d58019-407304281
