The project has been stalled because the Obama administration has yet to approve the project because of environmental concerns; but with senate support, the president might be painted into a corner with very little choice but to give the project the greenlight, according to some analysts.
The project requires presidential approval because the pipeline crosses a national border. The nation is divided on the issue and has been a discussion focus on climate change and the environment.
