“I have an amendment at the desk. The CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 903, after line 22, insert the following new paragraph: (3) Energy security.--Notwithstanding paragraph (1), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission shall require every permit issued under this Act to include provisions that ensure that any crude oil and bitumen transported by the Keystone XL pipeline, and all refined petroleum fuel products whose origin was via importation of crude oil or bitumen by the Keystone XL pipeline, will be entered into domestic commerce for use as a fuel, or for the manufacture of another product, in the United States. The President may provide for waivers of such requirement in the following situations: (A) Where the President determines that such a waiver is in the national interest because it-- (i) will not lead to an increase in domestic consumption of crude oil or refined petroleum products obtained from countries hostile to United States interests or with political and economic instability that compromises energy supply security; (ii) will not lead to higher costs to refiners who purchase the crude oil than such refiners would have to pay for crude oil in the absence of such a waiver; and (iii) will not lead to higher gasoline costs to consumers than consumers would have to pay in the absence of such a waiver.…”
