“Today the environmental community is cheering. Organizations and individuals from across the country came together to demand President Obama reject the Keystone XL pipeline, and today our voices were recognized.
This is a tremendous victory for landowners along the pipeline route, communities fighting to prevent tar sands oil expansion, and everyone else who has come together to successfully stop the Keystone XL pipeline.
We hope that this historic rejection of fossil fuels kicks off a new era that will protect communities from reckless oil and gas expansion and prevent catastrophic climate change by keeping fossil fuels in the ground.”
