The Dakota Access Pipeline is the safest, most environmentally sensitive way to transport crude oil from North Dakota to refining markets throughout the country
We are so pleased with today’s issuance of the Record of Decision by the USACE for DAPL’s crossing of Lake Oahe. The Dakota Access pipeline has been safely operating for nearly 10 years and is a critical piece of our country’s energy infrastructure.

"Seventy-five years after North Dakota’s first oil discovery, the state’s energy leadership remains a pillar of economic stability and national strength. This milestone also coincides with ten years since the violent Dakota Access Pipeline protests, a futile attempt to strongarm the government into halting a pipeline that today transports roughly 40 percent of the Bakken’s oil production. As we reflect on 75 years of North Dakota oil production, we are grateful to the producers and transporters who have made this success possible and continue to power American energy dominance." - GAIN Spokesman, Craig Stevens, @Stevens_NH
Nathaniel Buynak of Sherwood, N.D. writes: "To protect American courts and juries, North Dakota courts must act to shut down Greenpeace’s ridiculous EU lawsuit."

“The Dakota Access Pipeline is a vital component of energy infrastructure, not only for North Dakota’s oil production and economy, but also for broader American energy security,” said Ron Ness, president of the North Dakota Petroleum Council.

Great opinion by Joshua Blackaby. He says energy is not a partisan issue, but an economic and national security imperative. And to "stand firm against efforts to halt critical infrastructure through disruptive protests such as those against Dakota Access."

"Today, by delivering affordable, dependable energy to Midwestern markets, supporting job creation, and bolstering local public services, DAPL fuels North Dakota’s growth and strengthens America’s energy independence." - Patrice Douglas

Honored to spend the day in North Dakota delivering turkeys and meal boxes to White Shield and Mandaree members of the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation. Wishing everyone a safe, happy, and connected winter season!
The result is the reduced transportation costs have added what Morrissette calls a “very rough estimate” of between $700 million and $800 million in additional proceeds for North Dakota public use since DAPL went online, according to state data.

We’re proud to support the incredible work of the Williston Salvation Army with a donation to help local families in need.
From food assistance to shelter and essential services, the @WillistonSA is a pillar of support for so many in our area.
We're happy to support the Mandan Rural Fire Department with $10,000 toward the purchase of a new pickup truck for their fleet!

"These groups, like Greenpeace, don’t understand that speech was never the issue in the North Dakota trial. It was Greenpeace’s actions that led to its expensive penalties..."

The environmental lobby Greenpeace is finally getting its just deserts after a North Dakota jury on Wednesday ordered it to pay $667 million in damages for its thuggish campaign last decade to block the Dakota Access Pipeline.

“Ultimately, we want to produce [oil] here at home. Think about it, not only does it create jobs, it helps our economy, it’s more cost-effective, and it’s the highest quality,” Senator Hoeven said.
ICYMI: Last week, a North Dakota jury ordered Greenpeace to pay $667 million in damages for its campaign in 2016-2017 to block the Dakota Access Pipeline.

The good people of Morton County had to live through the often violent and unlawful Dakota Access Pipeline protests. They deserve the opportunity to deliver accountability to one of the organizers.
