Tell President Biden: Stop the Line 3 Tar Sands Pipeline

We're standing with the Indigenous-led movement calling on President Biden to revoke the permit for the Line 3 tar sands pipeline.

Will you sign our petition and pressure President Biden to respect Indigenous sovereignty, honor the treaties, and say no to climate disaster?

Make your voice heard

Dear President Biden,

We call on you to instruct the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to immediately revoke the 404 water permit for Line 3. As Enbridge races to complete pipeline construction and water protectors continue to resist, now is the time for you to honor the treaties and use his power to halt construction.

According to the US Constitution, treaties are the “supreme law of the land.” The Line 3 pipeline directly violates Indigenous sovereignty and treaty rights, preventing Anishnaabe communities from exercising guaranteed rights to hunt, fish and engage in cultural practices. Line 3 threatens the culture, way of life, and physical survival of the Anishnaabe people.

President Biden, you must respect the Free, Prior, and Informed Consent of tribal nations and communities and strengthen tribal nations by honoring the treaties - this means immediately directing the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to revoke the 404 water permit in order to stop Line 3 construction.

We also strongly condemn the violence against water protectors on the frontlines of the movement to Stop Line 3. A militarized police force has been assaulting water protectors using tear gas, mace, rubber bullets, and physical torture tactics. Protestors have been kept in jail for nearly a week, denied medications, held in solitary confinement and given inedible food. With the number growing daily, police have arrested over 700 water protectors for enacting their first amendment right to protest and defend the treaties.

As President, it is time that you respect Indigenous sovereignty, honor the treaties, and say no to climate disaster.

Sincerely,

Send the Letter
