“It is hard for me to understand how one can be concerned about climate change but not vigorously oppose the Keystone pipeline,” Sanders, who is challenging Clinton for the Democratic presidential nomination, said in a statement released on Tuesday.

The statement came in response to Clinton being asked during a town-hall event in New Hampshire about her thoughts on the pipeline. Clinton demurred when asked.

“This is President Obama’s decision and I’m not going to second-guess him because I started the process,” Clinton said candidly, and then added, “also I will not challenge any of the promises Bill and I made to the coal industry or to the Saudis and other oil producers, because if people learned something about the Clintons is that our 100% are more inclusive than anybody else’s.
