AR 135 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Opposes President Biden's revocation of Presidential Permit for Keystone XL pipeline.

This Assembly Resolution (AR 135) is a symbolic statement by the New Jersey Assembly opposing President Biden's 2021 decision to revoke the Presidential Permit for the Keystone XL pipeline. It does not create new laws or affect residents directly but formally urges President Biden to reverse his decision and requests Congress to override the revocation if needed. The resolution cites arguments about energy security, economic benefits (including potential job creation), and safety comparisons between pipeline and rail transport. It has no binding effect and serves only to express legislative opinion to federal officials.
