Oil Change International Statement on Draft Keystone XL EIS
Our concerns with the impact statement for the Keystone XL pipeline released today are extensive and only serve to further strengthen the clear need for Secretary Kerry and President Obama to reject this proposed pipeline project.

Over the next 45 days, we are confident Americans will make this abundantly clear to the Administration.
