Supreme Court allows construction to resume on the Mountain Valley Pipeline | AP News

The Mountain Valley Pipeline route on Brush Mountain, July 18, 2018. The Supreme Court is allowing construction to resume on a contested natural-gas pipeline that is being built through Virginia and West Virginia. Work had been halted by the federal appeals court in Richmond, even after Congress ordered the project's approval as part of the bipartisan bill to increase the debt ceiling. President Joe Biden signed the bill into law in June. (Heather Rousseau/The Roanoke Times via AP)The Court’s ruling affirmed that, in some instances, Congress may have power over federal courts. The pipeline has faced significant controversy and the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals blocked construction. However, Congress approved the completion of the pipeline in a provision of the debt ceiling bill. The ruling has immediate implications for the construction of the pipeline which is to proceed immediately. The pipeline will be over 303 miles long and will span from West Virginia to southern Virginia.
