President Obama: Stop the Dakota Access Pipeline

Start: Tuesday, September 13, 2016 5:00 PM

The movement to stop the Dakota Access Pipeline is growing stronger by the day, and it’s time for all of us to rise up and play a role in this fight – no matter where we live.

Tribal Nations are taking The Army Corps of Engineers to court over the unjust pipeline approval process, but President Obama could step in any time and say "no" to this whole thing, like he did for Keystone XL. For months, indigenous activists have set up resistance camps along the pipeline route in a historic feat of nonviolent resistance. Next week, activists in DC will gather outside the White House in an act of solidarity and call on President Obama to intervene and stop construction on the pipeline.

Join us on Tuesday, September 13th as we call on President Obama to stop the Dakota Access Pipeline! We will gather right between Lafayette Square the White House, on Pennsylvania Avenue.
