We have kicked off day one of the People vs. Fossil Fuels mobilization in DC, a week of protests and civil disobedience to press President Biden to declare a climate emergency and stop all fossil fuel projects.
At this moment, hundreds of activists from across the country are gathered in front of the White House risking arrest to demand that Indigenous rights be respected. We are demanding: No more broken treaties. No more deadly fossil fuel pipelines and projects.
