amendment intended to be proposed by him to the bill S. 1, to approve
the Keystone XL Pipeline; which was ordered to lie on the table; as

At the appropriate place, insert the following:
SEC. __. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING CLIMATE CHANGE.
It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) climate change is real;
(2) worldwide scientific opinion is not settled on the
extent to which human activities may be causing climate
change;
(3) projections by models of catastrophic increases in
global temperatures have not been validated by measured
temperature data;
(4) fossil fuels are critical to the health of the world
economy and low-cost electricity and other energy forms have
dramatically improved the health and quality of life of
millions the world over; and
(5) the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement
for the Keystone XL Project issued by the Secretary of State
in January 2014, found that construction of the Keystone XL
Pipeline will not significantly impact global greenhouse gas
emissions.
