Louisiana lawmakers are supporting President Trump's plan to revive construction of the Keystone pipeline.
Senators Bill Cassidy and John Kennedy both voiced support for the action Tuesday, saying the move will help create jobs in the oil and gas industry.
The pipeline is not planned to run through Louisiana.
Construction of the Keystone pipeline was halted by President Obama amid protests from Native Americans over environmental concerns.
