Dear Bobby, A lot can happen in less than 5 years: Constitution was ratified . . .3 years The Hoover Dam was constructed . . .4 years Lewis & Clark traveled across America . . .3 years Yet today marks 5 years since the Keystone XL pipeline was submitted and it is still mired in red tape and delay. Tell President Obama it's time to build the Keystone XL and put Americans back to work. Despite numerous studies that show no ill effects from KXL – President Obama continues to delay his decision costing us: More than 20,000 manufacturing and construction jobs. 117,000 jobs from oil sand resource development by 2035. $20 billion in new spending in the US economy. $170 billion added to the economy over 25 years. $585 million in taxes for states along the pipeline route. In addition, it would enhance US energy security with 800,000 barrels of oil per day from our politically stable, dependable ally Canada, reducing our dependence on foreign oil imports from unfriendly nations. Five years is along enough. We must keep the pressure on President Obama and his cabinet appointees – approve the Keystone XL pipeline now! Contact the White House and speak out on Keystone XL pipeline today! Sincerely, The Energy Citizens Team   Not interested anymore? Click here to unsubscribe. Energy Citizens | P.O.
