Noting that the Keystone Pipeline decision is coming down to the wire, Thomas Jefferson Institute President Michael Thompson has written the Institute’s supporters urging their action in support of the Keystone Pipeline. "Either the US gets this needed oil or it will be shipped to China," Thompson noted. "Your action today can help convince Secretary John Kerry and President Barack Obama to approve this necessary project and get the jobs and energy we need as soon as possible.

"Building Keystone is an economic growth issues supported by a broad array of Americans — Democrats, Republicans, Independents, union members and business leaders," Thompson concluded. The oil in Canada is either going to the United States or China. For the sake of our own energy security, let’s make certain it comes here."

Thompson urged the Institute’s friends to send a letter by March 7 to the State Department expressing support for the Keystone Pipeline. A draft of a sample letter can be found here. Additional information about the proposal and where to email letters of support can be found here. Supporters can also sign up in favor of Keystone by clicking here.
