We’ll put it bluntly, dear friend.
The Line 3 pipeline directly undermines the Biden administration’s stated priorities of respecting Indigenous rights and responding to the climate crisis.
Right now, dozens of activists are being arrested on the frontlines of the Line 3 pipeline. "Authorities" are refusing indigenous leaders the ability to hold ceremony in line with their treaty rights.
Our demands are clear : Biden must listen to the people and direct the Army Corps of Engineers to immediately reevaluate and suspend or revoke Enbridge’s Line 3 Clean Water Act Section 404 permit.
We need to generate massive pressure online and generate thousands of messages and calls to Biden :
The Army Corps of Engineers issued the 404 permit on November 23, 2020, but refused to prepare an environmental impact statement to consider the impacts on Indigenous people and the climate. Biden and the Corps have the power to suspend or revoke the permit if the Corps determines that new information surfaces or significant objections arise that they did not consider initially.
The Line 3 pipeline would unlock CO2 emissions equivalent to 50 coal plants, cross more than 200 waterways, violate treaty rights, and spell disaster for local communities and ecosystems that call the headwaters of the Mississippi home.
In order to be a #ClimatePresident, President Biden must stop this pipeline and reject all fossil fuel projects. We will not rest until Biden upholds his principles and puts people and our planet before fossil fuel profits.
With resolve,
