The Obama administration rejected a bid to expand the Keystone XL oil sands pipeline.
President Obama said in a written statement the denial "is not a judgment on the merits of the pipeline, but the arbitrary nature of a deadline (set by Congress) that prevented the State Department from gathering the information necessary to approve the project and protect the American people."
The pipeline may not be dead. A State Department memo said "the department's denial of the permit application does not preclude any subsequent permit application."
"This is not the end of the fight," said House Speaker John Boehner, adding that the pipeline was "good for the American people, especially those who are looking for work."
