WASHINGTON Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, a freshman Democrat from North Dakota, is ready to take on President Obama over the long-delayed approval for the Keystone XL Pipeline and she predicts her side will prevail.
"We know that we have the votes here in the Senate; we certainly have the votes in the House," she told USA TODAY on Thursday. "In fact, I think we could build enough votes to override a veto."
Heitkamp is equally caustic about regulations proposed by the Environmental Protection Agency to limit emissions in new power plants, saying administration policies consistently reflect "an irrational dislike of coal."
