Sen. Angus King To Vote Against Keystone Pipeline Bill
The best hope for Mary Landrieu (D-Turncoat) to pass legislation to approve the Keystone XL oil pipeline was Independent Sen. Angus King (Maine).
The Hill reports:
King was considered a crucial potential supporter by Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.), who appears to have 59 votes. She is just one short of the 60 needed to get her measure approving the oil sands project to President Obama’s desk.
Without King, chances of picking up the final vote needed to reach a filibuster-proof majority on Tuesday remain slim.
The Maine senator was coy about his vote Monday evening, stating he was “leaning no” and would decide when he cast his vote Tuesday evening.
While the Senate started to debate on the Canada-to-Texas pipeline on Tuesday, King released an official statement announcing his opposition.
BOOM. In your face, Mary Landrieu!
