21 States Sue Biden for Revoking Keystone Pipeline

Texas and Montana are leading a coalition of 21 states in a lawsuit filed Wednesday against President Biden over his decision to revoke a key permit for the Keystone XL oil pipeline.

Represented by Republican attorneys general, the states contend Biden had no authority to revoke the cross-border permit, arguing that only Congress can regulate interstate and international commerce.

The complaint contends Biden’s “arbitrary and capricious” decision could deprive states and local governments of millions of dollars in revenue.

Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen called Biden’s executive order “an empty virtue signal to his wealthy coastal elite donors.”

“The power to regulate foreign and interstate commerce belongs to Congress – not the president,” he said. “This is another example of Joe Biden overstepping his constitutional role to the detriment of Montanans.” (Read more from “21 States Sue Biden for Revoking Keystone Pipeline” HERE)
