    President Obama vetoed the Keystone XL Pipeline bill passed by the U.S. Congress. We have a full story on the veto on our website blog.

    We are trying to put more and more general interest stories, press releases, etc. on our website blog as opposed to publishing everything in our newsletters. This way we hope to shorten the length of our newsletters a bit (I have one service center who complains they take too long to read). Try to take a moment each day to check out our website and especially our blog postings.
