"It makes you want to give up."

Tommy Pigott - February 5, 2021

If you doubt the true price of Biden’s war on American energy, look no further than those Americans who have had their livelihoods destroyed by Biden’s executive order canceling the Keystone XL pipeline.

CBS News spoke with a few of the workers bearing the brunt of Biden’s job-destroying policies.

Ron Berringer, LiUNA Local 1140: “‘[I was told], ‘Well, your dad was a steward for us and if you do half the job he did, you'll be doing us a great job.’ And I knew right then that's what I wanted to do, is continue on and follow in his footsteps,’… He calls it the best job he ever had — his ‘bread and butter.’ Without that financial boost, Berringer says his future looks ‘gloomy.’

Tyler Noel, LiUNA Local 620:It's not just a job, it's like a lifestyle…Anything that was coming in the next few months was supposed to be Keystone…If you do a task, do a job, for thirteen years, you'd like to think in thirteen years you'd be somewhat comfortable and then not have to worry about a job. What was the last thirteen years for? The last thirteen years of being out on the road, being away from family and for what? For me to be sitting here right now talking to you about this

Make no mistake, the Biden administration has abandoned thousands of middle class Americans. And for what? An executive order that only kills jobs and does little, if anything, to lower greenhouse gas emissions.
