New NRCC Web Video: Lean Backwards

The National Republican Congressional Committee announced today an online video challenging President Obama for ignoring calls for American jobs as he delays action on the Keystone XL Pipeline project. Even with bipartisan support and the backing of labor unions, Obama is playing politics with the future of many struggling American families looking for job creation and energy independence.

“Even Rachel Maddow should be able to understand the benefits of a project like Keystone XL, which not only can help with our country’s energy needs but also has the potential to bring tens of thousands of jobs to a struggling American economy,” said NRCC Communications Director Paul Lindsay. “Unfortunately, Americans are doomed to wait in uncertainty as President Obama continues to side with wealthy anti-energy activist donors to his campaign instead of making a simple decision to help get our economy back on track.”
