I’m calling to urge President Biden to revoke permits for oil and gas pipelines like Dakota Access and Line 3, and stop approving all new fossil fuel projects. If the President is serious about addressing the climate crisis, he must keep fossil fuels in the ground and invest in the communities that have borne the brunt of pollution and climate disaster.”

While President Biden and his administration took bold action on Day One by revoking the Keystone XL pipeline permit, similar flaws with environmental review and a lack of consultation with Tribal Nations also exist with the Dakota Access pipeline.
- The ever-present possibility of a new wave of mass opposition to DAPL and solidarity rising up to Stand With Standing Rock will keep pressure on the Biden administration to take bold action to stop DAPL.
