In another major vote, the Senate has narrowly rejected a measure that would have approved construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline. Fourteen Democrats supported the bill along with all 45 Republicans. But with 59 in favor, the measure failed to pass by just one vote. After the tally was announced, a man reportedly with the Lakota Tribe of South Dakota burst out in song. Republicans have vowed to resurrect the bill in January, when they hold the Senate majority.
