Local organizers put on trainings for an anti-repression workshop and monitoring pipeline construction.
There was rally to honor the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Relatives - an epidemic exacerbated by extractive projects.

SHUT DOWN LINE 5 ❕🌊
Last week, we rallied in St Paul to demanding a halt to construction on the Enbridge Line 5 pipeline now underway in northern Wisconsin. The St. Paul District of the Army Corps has federal permitting jurisdiction over the Wisconsin pipeline project, which would install new pipe and cross 186 water bodies, threatening the water of the entire Great Lakes. No new pipelines in Wisconsin or Michigan! No reroute for Enbridge greed!
Thank you to all who joined in solidarity with Bad River. This action was a partnership with Indigenous Environmental Network, The Red Nation, Mukwa, Indigenous Protector Movement, Climate Justice Committee, Sierra Club North Star Chapter, Anti War Committee, and Sunrise Twin Cities!

Powerful action in WI today to #ShutDownLine5!
"Activists say that the aging Line 5 should be shut down rather than rerouted due to the imminent threat of an oil spill, its violation of Indigenous treaty rights, and the need to stop the fossil fuel extraction that is driving the climate crisis."

“There’s a certain amount of hubris involved in saying we’re going to stick a 40-mile pipeline through the earth, and if we mess up these wetlands that nature has created over thousands of years, we’ll just put them back together again." #ShutDownLine5

Despite overwhelming public opposition, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) approved permits on Friday for Canadian oil giant Enbridge to reroute its Line 5 pipeline around and upstream of the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Reservation, where it has operated in illegal trespass for over a decade.
Enbridge still needs federal approval from the US Army Corps of Engineers, which in August received more than 150,000 comments from project opponents, including health professionals, faith groups, and regional businesses. This is the response from Chairman Blanchard and the Band’s attorneys at EarthJustice. Graphics via Communities United by Water. #ShutDownLine5

Attorney General #DanaNessel filed a lawsuit to shut down #Enbridge’s #Line5 pipeline, saying it was a grave threat to #Michigan & the #GreatLakes. The 70 year old oil & liquid natural gases pipeline which sits on the bottom of the Straits of Mackinac which connects Lakes Michigan & Huron. Nessel says Line 5 is a "ticking timebomb" because of the risk of an oil spill.
