Friends,
Thank

Demanding Action
on
the
Keystone
XL
Pipeline
President
Obama
has
had
5
years
to
approve
the
Keystone
XL
Pipeline
and
bring
much-needed
jobs
to
the
United
States,
but
he
continues
to
stall.
This
past
week,
I
joined
55
of
my
colleagues
on
a
bill
that
would
give
Congress
the
authority
to
finally
approve
the
pipeline,
cutting
out
the
politics
that
are
being
played
with
this
important
energy
measure.
I
spoke
on
the
Senate
floor
in
support
of
American
energy
independence
and
finally
building
the
Keystone
XL
Pipeline.

Keeping
our
Promise

South
Carolina
agreed
to
have
a
mixed
oxide
nuclear
fuel
(MOX)
plant
built
in
our
state
at
the
Savannah
River
Site
in
order
to
fulfill
an
international
treaty to
dispose
of
68
metric
tons
of
weapons
grade
nuclear
material —not
to
allow
it
to
sit
half-finished
while
dangerous
radioactive
material
is
stored
in
the
state.
Through
letters
to
President
Obama
and
DoE
Secretary
Moniz
as
well
as
multiple
meetings
with
Secretary
Moniz,
joint
efforts
have
been
successful
in
keeping
construction
of
the
plant
going through
the
end
of
this
fiscal
year.
It
has
been
an
integral
part
of
agreements
with
Russia
and
other
countries,
and
will
be
used
to
produce
nuclear
fuel
that
can
be
part
of
an
effective
“all
of
the
above”
strategy
for
American
energy.

Obamacare
Must
Go
My
stance
on
Obamacare
hasn’t
changed,
and
with
the
confirmation
hearing
for Sylvia Burwell
as
the
President’s
new
Department
of
Health
and
Human
Services Secretary this
coming
week,
we
have
an
opportunity
to
ask
some
very
important
questions.
Obamacare
must
be
repealed
and
replaced
with
sensible
reforms,
and
it
seems
unlikely
that
Secretary
Burwell
or
anyone
else
could
fix
the
mess
this
bad
legislation
has
made.
In
case
you
missed
it,
you
can
read
the
guest
post
I
wrote
for
Red
State here.

It
is
an
honor
to
represent
you
in
the
United
States
Sunday,
and
my
staff
and
I
stand
ready
to
assist
you
in
any
way
we
can.
Please
