The AISI said that the energy provisions of H.R. 7, which will expand access to US' oil and gas resources and devote expected revenues to pay for transportation infrastructure, passed late Thursday by a 237-187 vote.  The legislation also includes a provision to expedite the approval of the Keystone XL pipeline.
