President Donald Trump on Thursday blasted New York for holding up New England pipelines and threatened to overrule the state’s permitting power.
The president did not say what pipeline he was referring to in his social media post, but has recently vowed to revive the Constitution Pipeline that was scuttled by former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo nearly a decade ago.
Trump said New Englanders would save $2,300 a month in heating costs if they had their pipelines.
“We only need the final approval from New York State, whose people all want it. Otherwise, we’ll have to use other authorities,” he wrote in a post on his site, Truth Social.
