In a letter to Biden, McCarthy and his Republican colleagues said the completion of Nord Stream 2 would hurt the U.S. economy and national security.<\/p>\n<p>McCarthy said Biden gave a \u201cgift\u201d to Russian President Vladimir Putin by waiving pipeline sanctions. He added that due to Biden\u2019s decision Russia will be able to sell more gas to Europe at a cheaper price, which will reduce U.S. exports and cost thousands of American jobs.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Dear Mr. President:<\/p>\n<p>Given your open hostility to domestic pipelines like the Keystone XL pipeline, it is baffling that you are willing to green-light Russia&#8217;s Nord Stream 2 pipeline.<\/p>\n<p>Put simply, you are prioritizing Russian jobs over American jobs. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/uqRhyQqGLV\">pic.twitter.com\/uqRhyQqGLV<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Kevin McCarthy (@GOPLeader) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GOPLeader\/status\/1402682439521218563?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 9, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>McCarthy and lawmakers alike agree that Biden\u2019s decision is irresponsible. \u201cGiven your open hospitality to domestic pipelines like the Keystone XL pipeline, which also was a top priority for our Canadian allies, it is baffling that you are willing to green-light Russia\u2019s Nord Stream 2 pipeline,\u201d the lawmakers added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Keystone XL pipeline would enhance our energy security and create job opportunities for Americans.\u201d Further, he suggested that by lifting the sanctions, all Biden is doing is prioritizing Russian jobs over American jobs.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, McCarthy is urging Biden to rethink his action and to \u201cfully implement the Congressionally mandated sanctions against all responsible parties and actors to permanently stop completion of Nord Stream 2.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/sen-tommy-tuberville-communist-china-is-americas-biggest-adversary\/\">Sen.
