API launches new ad campaign urging Congressional approval of KXL

World 鶹ýӳ,


API Downstream Operations Senior Manager, Refining and Oilsands, Cindy Schild said after years of delays and excuses by the President, it is now time for Congress to take the lead and approve the Keystone XL (KXL) pipeline.

鶹ýӳIt鶹ýӳs time for members of the Senate to vote yes on KXL and take a stand for middle class Americans who desperately need and want the thousands of jobs Keystone XL would create,鶹ýӳ said Schild. 鶹ýӳThe benefits of this vital energy infrastructure project have been held hostage for more than five years. The administration鶹ýӳs shameful politics of 鶹ýӳprocess鶹ýӳ should not trump what is in the best interest of this nation鶹ýӳs energy and economic future.鶹ýӳ

API has launched new TV, radio and online ads in Colorado, Delaware, Minnesota, New Mexico and South Dakota urging Senators to approve the KXL pipeline. The message: it is time to take action and put politics aside.

鶹ýӳAmericans overwhelmingly want KXL built and are telling their lawmakers in Washington. API鶹ýӳs grassroots army of more than 24 million American energy advocates is urging elected officials to support KXL legislation.

鶹ýӳA vote for the bipartisan bill introduced by Senators Hoeven and Landrieu is a vote against Washington gridlock and game-playing. After five exhaustive studies confirming no significant environmental impacts, the Obama administration鶹ýӳs announcement that it needs more time to make a decision is a joke.鶹ýӳ

API represents all segments of America鶹ýӳs oil and natural gas industry. Its more than 600 members produce, process, and distribute most of the nation鶹ýӳs energy. The industry also supports 9.8 million US jobs and 8% of the US economy.
