Legal Support for #ShutItDown Activists

October 12, 2016

Yesterday, 10 activists, support team members, and videographers are spending the night in jail across four states for shutting down the importation of tar sands oil into the United States this morning, and taking action to avert climate cataclysm.

CLDC is providing legal support to all five teams across the country.

“These earth-defenders may be the first to encounter energy infrastructure sentencing and charging enhancements for non-violent civil disobedience in the US.” -Lauren Regan, CLDC Executive Director
