Bloomberg: The Republican-controlled U.S. Senate passed a bill to approve the Keystone XL pipeline, setting up a conflict with President Barack Obama who has promised a veto.
The Senate voted 62-36 Thursday for the measure that would circumvent the administration review in progress for six years. Nine Democrats joined Republicans who backed the measure. Obama has said he wants to wait until the review is completed before deciding on whether to approve construction of the pipeline.
