Join the Stop Line 3 National Day of Action

December 14th marks the one-year anniversary of the first large scale arrest from nonviolent direct action against the Line 3 Pipeline. To recognize the event, MN350, Rainforest Action Network, Honor the Earth and others are holding a national Stop Line 3 Day of Action.

We support the Stop Line 3 for many reasons. First, the damage being done to the Earth will irreparably hurt our lives and the lives for generations to come. Second, the Water Protectors and Grandmothers who lead this effort are Indigenous women we support them.

Treaty People Gathering June 5-8 and WMM to join effort June 5-6

The Treaty People Gathering is a weekend-long initiative leading up to a non-violent direct action on June 7 in Northern Minnesota to stop construction of Enbridge’s Line 3 project in Northern Minnesota.

WMM members have been involved with Line 3 actions in the past by volunteering to document construction of the line and attending protests in Northern Minnesota as well as in the Twin Cities. A group of us plan to join the Treaty People Gathering on June 5-6 (Saturday and Sunday) to support the preparation of the non-violent direction action planned for Monday. The preparation will take place near Detroit Lakes; we will be leaving Saturday morning and returning Sunday night. Please let us know if you want to lend your time and energy for this important cause. (Contact us at admin@womensmarchmn.org.)

Don't Let Our Legislature Bypass Line 3 Proposal Review! Show Up April 12th!

Help pack the room TOMORROW for the hearing of SF3510, a bill to fast-track the permitting to build Line 3!


SF3510 stops the Public Utilities Commission's review of Enbridge's Line 3 proposal. It allows Enbridge to build the pipeline along the route they want - without any regard for the public testimony, public comments, expert analysis and ongoing Tribal Cultural survey of the PUC.

Stop Line 3 - No Permits to Enbridge - #LoveWaterNotOil

"Minnesota utility regulators Thursday rejected a request by the state's Ojibwe bands to require a comprehensive tribal cultural analysis for Enbridge's proposed pipeline across northern Minnesota.

The tribes have asked the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission (PUC) to include a full state study of tribal historic sites as part of the state's Environmental Impact Statement for Enbridge's proposed new Line 3. The controversial pipeline would ferry Canadian oil to Enbridge's terminal in Superior, Wis.

The PUC declined to include such a survey in the environmental review.." -Source
