US President Joe Biden has issued his first veto, rejecting a bill passed by Congress that would have overturned his administration’s decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline project. The article notes that the pipeline project had been a source of controversy for years, with environmentalists opposing it due to concerns about its impact on climate change and indigenous communities. Biden’s decision to veto the bill is seen as a victory for environmental groups and a sign of his commitment to addressing climate change. The article also notes that this is only the second time in history that a president has vetoed a bill passed by Congress in their first year in office.
