HELLO, MY NAME IS ....

Lucas, after six months of protests the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, joined by hundreds of tribal nations, are still relentlessly fighting to protect their land and water from the Dakota Access oil pipeline. President Obama has responded to unprecedented tribal solidarity and organizing with half measures, and this dangerous pipeline keeps growing.

The Administration refused to authorize construction for a small portion of the 1,172-mile pipeline route and promised more consultation with tribal nations in the future. Meanwhile, peaceful protesters are constantly harassed and arrested, and journalists are targeted by police for their coverage of the protests.

Nearly 100,000 Daily Kos members have signed a petition urging President Obama to stop the Dakota Access pipeline. Half measures will not do. It's time to raise our voices and put even more pressure on the White House.

Call President Obama today and urge him to take bold, decisive action: Stop all construction on the Dakota Access pipeline. Here is a sample script:

White House phone number:
202-456-1111

Hello my name is _______. I'm calling to urge President Obama to stop all construction on the Dakota Access pipeline. This pipeline will leak oil in drinking water supplies, as it destroys important Native American sites. We need the President to stand for people and the environment, not protect big oil company profits.


After calling the White House, click here to tell us how it went.

Can't call? Then click here to sign and send a letter to President Obama, urging him to stop the destructive Dakota Access pipeline once and for all.

Keep fighting,
Irna Landrum, Daily Kos
