Trump To Sign Executive Orders Advancing Keystone
President Donald Trump will sign executive actions Tuesday to advance the Keystone XL and Dakota Pipelines, NBC News confirms.
He is expected to sign executive orders regarding both projects in the Oval Office this morning.
The decision is sure to anger environmental advocates who say that the projects would have severe negative impacts on the areas where they are built and would encourage more reliance on fossil fuels. The Standing Rock Sioux tribe and its allies have vigorously protested the Dakota Access project, saying it would damage cultural sites.
Backers of the pipelines say they will create jobs and cut energy costs.
The Obama administration rejected the Keystone XL pipeline in November 2015, and it denied a permit for the Dakota Access project late last year.
