Speaker John Boehner met with the House Republican negotiators today who will work with the Democratic-controlled Senate to move forward on the Keystone XL energy project, as well as key infrastructure reforms designed to ensure taxpayer dollars used on roads and bridges are spent more effectively and efficiently.
Last week, a bipartisan, veto-proof House majority voted to require approval of the popular Keystone pipeline -- which President Obama has blocked, lobbied against, and even tried to take credit for. The project would create tens of thousands of American jobs and help address high gas prices. Below is a photo from the Speaker’s meeting: The group of House Republican negotiators includes: Transportation Committee Chairman John L. Mica (FL), Ways & Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp (R-MI), Natural Resources Committee Chairman Doc Hastings (R-WA), Science Committee Chairman Ralph Hall (R-TX), Energy & Commerce Committee Chairman Fred Upton (R-MI), and Reps. Don Young (R-AK), John J. Duncan, Jr. (R-TN), Bill Shuster (R-PA), Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), Rick Crawford (R-AR), Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-WA), Larry Bucshon (R-IN), Richard Hanna (R-NY), Steve Southerland (R-FL), James Lankford (R-OK), Reid Ribble (R-WI), Pat Tiberi (R-OH), Rob Bishop (R-UT), Chip Cravaack (R-MN), and Ed Whitfield (R-KY).
