Senate narrowly fails to pass Keystone XL pipeline bill

The Chicago Tribune reports:

The U.S. Senate narrowly failed to pass a bill that would have approved construction of the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, rejecting a measure the House of Representatives approved last week.


The vote count was 59-41 in favor, but 60 "ayes" would have been needed to assure passage. Fourteen Democrats voted for the bill, joining all 45 Republicans who voted to support the pipeline.

Tom Steyer and George Soros have a few Senator looking after their green investments.
