CHARLESTON While President Joe Biden is pitching a multi-trillion-dollar infrastructure package to Congress, First District Congressman David McKinley, R-W.Va., reminded people one of Biden’s first acts as president was canceling an infrastructure project with possible repercussions for West Virginia.
“On his first day in office, President Biden revived the Democrats’ war on fossil fuels,” McKinley said. “In doing so, in this war on fuel countless jobs and billions of dollars in economic revenue have been lost. Money that supports our local schools and hospitals. These actions are destroying those communities reliant on fossil fuels for their livelihood.”

CHARLESTON, W.Va. Republican lawmakers with the U.S. House of Representatives held a forum Tuesday concerning President Joe Biden’s decision revoking the permit for the Keystone XL oil pipeline, highlighting their concerns with the project’s cancellation.
U.S. Rep. David McKinley, R-W.Va., hosted the event, in which members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee asked participants about the impact of the administration’s decision.
Biden signed an executive order on Jan. 20 his first day in office to cancel the 2019 permit for the project, which would have resulted in the transportation of thousands of barrels of oil from Canada to Nebraska. The president explained the project did not serve the national interest as the administration focuses its attention on economic development related to clean energy.
