Oppose Trump's approval of DAPL
Call on the staff of the Army Corp of Engineers to oppose Trump's approval of the Dakota Access Pipeline through work slow downs, refusal to do work, and throwing sand in the gears of the pipeline approval process.
Why is this important?
Donald Trump is trying to ram through approval of the Dakota Access Pipeline. The $3.8 billion Dakota Access Pipeline will contaminate the Standing Rock Sioux's water and will constitute yet another attack on their sovereignty and way of life.
This is just the first of many actions Trump and the GOP plan to take to use infrastructure projects to destroy the lives of people of color. Today he’ll ram this pipeline through the Sioux community, tomorrow he will push through a lung-choking oil refinery in a Black neighborhood.
But this fight is far from over. The bureaucrats of the Army Corp of Engineers - the agency overseeing the pipeline construction - still have a lot of power to delay and block this project. We need to call on staff within Army Corp of Engineers to oppose Trump by throwing sand in the gears of this destructive project. With their help we can stall this out.
