Reply to comment by ManderBlues in Am I missing something here? Maura Healey said she stopped 2 gas pipelines from coming into the state of Massachusetts. Wouldnt that mean gas prices and heating our homes will skyrocket? by [deleted]

Both. Pipelines are more efficient (read: cheaper) delivery systems than ships.

Not to say the ones she prevented would have mattered specifically here in MA though.

While you're correct that pipelines can deliver fuel/oil more cheaply than other methods, statistically there is very little correlation with pipelines and lower fuel prices.
