"Republican Wave Unlikely To Sweep Away Obama's Major Rules" [1]

"Despite their impressive gains last night, Republicans do not appear to have flipped enough seats to undo most of President Obama's environment and climate change agenda.

The united GOP Congress should be able to send him legislation that would approve the Keystone XL pipeline and to achieve narrower limits on the most controversial impending rules.

Republicans picked up at least seven seats in yesterday's elections, with additional gains possible in Alaska and next month's runoff in Louisiana as well as a possible recount in the unexpectedly close Virginia race."

Nick Juliano reports for Greenwire November 5, 2014. [2]
