"If Washington intends to be focused on jobs, then the KeystoneKeystone XL Pipeline is a no-brainer," said Chairman Graves. "last week, our subcommittee on agriculture, energy and trade heard from a labor official and small business owners, including one that president obama visited on friday, that they want the keystonekeystone xl pipeline project to move forward. the project would boost the demand for various skilled labor occupations, and create an estimated 42,100 jobs, many of them with small businesses. for something like this to be delayed more than 1700 days is unacceptable. small businesses across the nation want to grow and hire, as americans are demanding work. this keystone pipeline project is what we should give them."
