Join the Stop Line 3 National Day of Action

December 14th marks the one-year anniversary of the first large scale arrest from nonviolent direct action against the Line 3 Pipeline. To recognize the event, MN350, Rainforest Action Network, Honor the Earth and others are holding a national Stop Line 3 Day of Action.

We support the Stop Line 3 for many reasons. First, the damage being done to the Earth will irreparably hurt our lives and the lives for generations to come. Second, the Water Protectors and Grandmothers who lead this effort are Indigenous women we support them.
