DESCRIPTION:Today, Tuesday February 7, the US Army Corps gave notice of intent to grant 
 the final easement for the Dakota Access Pipeline to cross the Mni Sose 
 (Missouri River). They are skipping the EIS ordered in December, and 
 skipping the congressional notification period required by law. This is a 
 response to President Trump’s Presidential Memorandum directing the Corps 
 to expedite approval of the project. \n\nThe Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and 
 Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe will likely sue and ask for a temporary 
 restraining order to halt construction while the legality of this decision 
 is reviewed in court. In the meantime, DAPL will likely start drilling 
 immediately. The media recently reported that DAPL says their "best case 
 scenario" timeline is 83 days from easement to oil flow.\n\n WORLDWIDE CALL 
 TO ACTION FEB. 8\n\n The Indigenous Coalition at Standing Rock is calling 
 for February 8th to be an international day of emergency actions to disrupt 
 business as usual and unleash a global intersectional resistance to fossil 
 fuels and fascism. Connect with other struggles. Think long-term movement 
 building. We are in this for the long haul. \n\n The Standing Rock Sioux 
 Tribe has consistently asked for people to go home, and we understand this. 
 Regardless, water protectors remain on the ground at the Sacred Stone Camp, 
 determined to stop the black snake, and we support them. If you go, expect 
 police violence, mass arrests, felony charges for just about anything, 
 abuse while in custody, targeted persecution and racial profiling while 
 driving around the area, etc.\n\n We are calling for emergency actions all 
 over the world. PLEASE, THIS IS OUR LAST STAND. Please visit 
 everydayofaction.org to find or register an action wherever you are. Check 
 out our world action map to join the mass distributed actions TOMORROW, 
 February 8th. \n More here:

 Statement from Tom Goldtooth, Executive Director of the Indigenous 
 Environmental Network:\n\n“Donald Trump will not build his Dakota Access 
 Pipeline without a fight. The granting of an easement, without any 
 environmental review or tribal consultation, is not the end of this fight 
 — it is the new beginning. Expect mass resistance far beyond what Trump 
 has seen so far.\n\n“The granting of this easement goes against protocol, 
 it goes against legal process, it disregards more than 100,000 comments 
 already submitted as part of the not-yet-completed environmental review 
 process — all for the sake of Donald Trump’s billionaire big oil 
 cronies. And, it goes against the treaty rights of the entire Seven 
 Councils Fires of the Sioux Nations.\n\n“Donald Trump has not met with a 
 single Native Nation since taking office. Our tribal nations and Indigenous 
 grassroots peoples on the frontlines have had no input on this process. We 
 support the Standing Rock Sioux tribe, and stand with them at this 
 troubling time.”\n\nYou can read that notification letter here:
