Congressman Steve Womack released the following statement regarding President Obama's decision on the Keystone XL Pipeline:

"I am disappointed--though not surprised by the President's decision to delay the Keystone XL. It is clear that he is more interested in his re-election than the creation of thousands of jobs and policies that provide energy independence for America."

"The Keystone XL had broad, bi-partisan support and was enthusiastically embraced by an overwhelming majority of my constituents."

"Everywhere I go, people are asking "where are the jobs?' This President isn't interested in jobs until after his re-election. That is sad."
