Claims that rest on this event
- At home, new pipelines are sold as a way to reach buyers outside the US: in an Angus Reid poll, 55% picked 'sell oil outside the US' as a persuasive reason (several answers were allowed). So the link from the build-out to more output flowing south has to come from contracts and tariff design, not from the rally.
Abacus, July 2026: 62% support a West Coast pipeline and 61% the Northern Shield corridor. Steady support for routes that lead away from the US.
