NEW: Scientists are warning of "irreversible" damage when Enbridge Energy begins drilling under the Mississippi River this month to build the Line 3 pipeline across Minnesota.
Indigenous activists are planning mass direct action next week. Their message to @POTUS: #StopLine3.
We will #StopLine3. The power of the people grows every day and we will follow Indigenous frontline resistance that has been fighting this pipeline for years, we stand with you to ensure this pipeline never comes to pass. Follow @zhaabowekwe for more info! https://t.co/rPie0tBBz1
Yesterday Commissioner Laura Bishop betrayed MN by kowtowing to Enbridge, granting the permits for their toxic Line 3 project. Early this morning she was serenaded with pots, pans, drums, an accordion, and lots of screaming. @MnPCA has no integrity and the whole block knows it
UPDATE: water protectors rally against Line 3 at Enbridge work site in Backus, MN.
There's heavy machinery here for a dangerous project. Construction should not be happening during permits phase. This pipeline will not be built!

SHUT IT DOWN.
@Chi_Nations and allies shutting down intersection of Michigan and Randolph in Chicago at rush hour in solidarity with #WetsuwetenStong
Indigenous rights NOW!!
The chainsaws are trying to drown us out, but the voices of water protectors are more powerful. We've been here for over an hour.
We are 20 strong at this worksite today, and the movement to #StopLine3 is growing! We'll keep showing up until we #StopLine3. #WaterIsLife
Please share our livestream! We are bearing witness to extractive logging near Line 3 to stop these disaster projects. #StopLine3
