Earlier this month, in eight hours of public comment, the Army Corps heard our call loud and clear: reject permits for Line 5. Hundreds of people turned out in Ashland, Wisconsin because of their concerns for the Great Lakes! Comments at the hearing were overwhelmingly (2-1) supported the shutdown of Line 5.

When the Evers Administration held a comment period on the Line 5 pipeline, they received over 30,000 comments. Let's do that again and show that the movement to shut down Line 5 is growing.
This is an opportunity to tell the Army Corps and the entire Biden Administration about your concerns around Line 5. This pipeline, run by a multi-billion dollar corporation, Enbridge, is moving oil dangerously through northern Wisconsin every day in illegal trespass, violating the Bad River Band's sovereignty.
Enbridge is trying to expand the pipeline and operate it for years to come, putting the nearby water, plants, animals and communities at risk of an oil spill. Construction of a reroute threatens major damages in itself, and would extend the risk to the Great Lakes for decades.
