SUMMARY:No Bakken Pipeline Petition Delivery and Rally
DESCRIPTION:Please join us at Simon Estes Amphitheater to call on Obama to take a stand and stop the pipeline Wednesday\, September 14 at 10 a.m. \nClick here to add your name to the petition now! \nMembers of the Bakken Pipeline Coalition will join forces to  deliver more than 30\,000 petition signatures calling on President Obama to revoke the existing Army Corp of Engineer permits\, deny the pending permits\, honor the treaties with the tribes\, and stop the Bakken Pipeline for good. \nThe Standing Rock Sioux have been on the frontline of the fight to stop the pipeline\, which crosses over 200 river crossings (65 in Iowa)\, including the main drinking water source for the tribe\, and crosses ancestral lands with sacred burial grounds — land that had belonged to the tribe through a treaty. \nThe tribes were fighting the pipeline in court to protect their water and ancestral lands because the Army Corp of Engineers failed to properly consult with the tribes\, as is required by law. \nWith this decision\, we need President Obama to take a stand now more than ever!
