A filibuster-proof majority in the Senate in support of the Keystone XL pipeline may force the President’s hand on the controversial project.

Earlier this year, Keystone was the hottest energy policy debate in town. Why has attention to the pipeline project faded in the run-up to November’s midterm elections?

After a long-running dispute over unpaid bills, Gazprom finally acted on its threat to disrupt gas supplies to Ukraine today. Putin is busy turning the screws on Kiev—and on the West as well.

Support for the Keystone pipeline is at an all-time high. Greens are failing to convince the public of the project’s faults, largely because the facts don’t support their case.

The US State Department announced that it won’t make a decision on the Keystone XL pipeline until it receives the approval of the Nebraskan Public Service Commission. As a result, Democrats won’t face scrutiny on an issue that enrages their base until after the midterm elections.

Democrats remain divided over the Keystone pipeline, giving President Obama yet another reason to kick the project’s approval past this year’s midterm elections.

A Nebraska judge has ruled that the Governor erred in fast-tracking state approval of the Keystone XL pipeline project. This gives President Obama a heaven-sent opportunity avoid upsetting his green base before the midterms.
