Boehner: House Has Approved Keystone Pipeline; ‘No Good Reason’ for Obama To Veto it

“Republicans continue to focus on creating jobs and improving our economy – the priorities of the American people. Today, the Ways & Means Committee will consider Congresswoman Jenkins’ bill to strengthen college savings accounts. The president tried to tax these accounts, but we’re working to expand them, which means more savings and less debt for our students. And I think you can expect this bipartisan bill on the floor very soon.

Yesterday, the House acted in a bipartisan way to approve the Keystone pipeline. This will create tens of thousands of jobs, or at least 42,000 according to the president’s own State Department. More than 20 of our nation’s governors this morning sent a letter to the White House asking the president to consider signing this important bill. There is no good reason – none whatsoever – for the president to veto this jobs bill.”
