I thank the chairman for the time. Mr. Speaker, as you all know, a major portion of the Keystone XL pipeline will run through Nebraska's Third District. Nebraskans overwhelmingly support this project to improve access to North American energy and decrease the strain on our overwhelmed infrastructure system. As we all now know, the Nebraska Supreme Court has upheld the process as established by the elected Nebraska officials.

Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
