Senate Procedural Vote on Keystone today at 5:30pm ET

Last edited Mon Jan 12, 2015, 07:23 PM - Edit history (1)

60 Votes brings Keystone to a Senate Debate.

NOTE: If Keystone passes & sustains a Veto from President Obama, Senator Hoeven R/ND says "only FOUR votes are needed to override that veto.
They are working on getting those four."

EDIT:
Vote to proceed to debate passes 63-32

Debates should be interesting.
I will be watching this.

What concessions will be offered & what will be agreed to?

The line has been clearly drawn between Nay & Ya. They will burst into flames when this KXL goes down.
