Statement from Standing Rock Sioux chairman on temporary restraining order ruling

September 6, 2016 - Statement from Standing Rock Sioux chairman on temporary restraining order ruling
sm_press_release.jpg
Today's denial of a temporary restraining order against Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) west of Lake Oahe puts my people's sacred places at further risk of ruin and desecration.

We are disappointed that the U.S. District Court's decision does not prevent DAPL from destroying our sacred sites as we await a ruling on our original motion to stop construction of the pipeline.

- David Archambault II, Chairman of Standing Rock Sioux Tribe
