The President and CEO of the American Chamber of Commerce’s Institute for 21st Century Energy says she can’t see how President Barack Obama cannot approve the Keystone XL pipeline project.
Karen Harbert says it’s time America start investing in it’s energy infrastructure like other countries are doing.
Harbert says building the pipeline that will boost oilsands shipments to the U.S. will give the struggling American economy a big boost not to mention all the jobs it will create.
She says despite ongoing negative media reports and high profile celebrity protests, the vast majority of Americans want the pipeline built.
A decision on the seven billion dollar project is expected before the end of the year.
