A coalition of Republican state attorneys general from over a dozen states across the U.S. has urged President Joe Biden to reinstate the Keystone XL pipeline after it was canceled by the administration last year.

The chief legal advisers were led by Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen in sending a letter to Biden asking him to “stop federal efforts to impose excessive regulations that will increase Americans’ energy costs.”
