U.S. Sen. James Inhofe says he supports a bill being introduced in the U.S. Senate that will bypass the president and provide congressional approval to the Keystone XL pipeline.
Oklahoma’s senior senator says the bill is being introduced Monday by Republican Sens.
John Hoeven of North Dakota, Richard Lugar of Indiana and David Vitter of Louisiana. Inhofe says he’s one of 44 cosponsors of the measure.
