The Fight at Standing Rock Continues — and U.S. Veterans are Ready to Mobilize
February 6th, 2017
By Carey Wedler
In early December, many Americans celebrated the Army Corps of Engineers decision to withhold a final permit for the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL), a project that drew ongoing demonstrations from native Standing Rock Sioux “water protectors,” environmentalists, and other activists. The Corps decision effectively halted construction, at least temporarily, until an environmental impact assessment could be conducted, and coincided with the arrival of thousands of U.S. military veterans to the camp. They had vowed to defend protesters from heavily militarized and aggressive police, as well as to prevent construction on the pipeline itself.
Though the saga appeared to end there — and media coverage of the situation tapered off — recent developments have triggered further conflict.
Before his inauguration, President Donald Trump was expected to push the DAPL through, and he quickly made good on that assumption upon taking office. Trump issued executive orders to authorize construction on both DAPL and the highly controversial Keystone XL pipeline. Trump ordered the Army Corps of Engineer to “review and approve [the project] in an expedited manner,” also asking the Army to consider “whether to ‘withdraw’ the environmental review, despite the fact it is already under way, with a public comment period that closes on 20 February,” The Guardianreported last week.
This move is unsurprising considering Trump previously held stock in Energy Transfer Partners (ETP), the company behind DAPL, while former Texas Governor Rick Perry, Trump’s pick for Secretary of Energy, is on the board of ETP. Further, Trump has shown his apparent acceptance of oil dependency by his appointment of former Exxon CEO Rex Tillerson to the role of Secretary of State.
