Despite the failure of Congress this week to override the President’s veto of the Keystone XL bill, the project is not dead.

South Dakota Senator Mike Rounds says despite low oil prices right now, the pipeline will be needed far into the future…

Rounds says building and operating the pipeline will be a big benefit to a number of west river counties…

Rounds says oil moved by the Keystone XL pipeline will displace even more imported oil…

The President in his veto message did say that there would be a final decision on the pipeline, “in months, and certainly before the end of my term.”
