Opponents of Enbridge’s Line 3 pipeline upgrade delivered a “thank you” card to Governor Tim Walz and Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan today at the State Capitol. Andy Pearson with MN350 says, “They made the right decision and thousands — tens of thousands — of people across Minnesota support that decision to keep the Department of Commerce appeal going against the Line 3 pipeline.”
Backers of Line 3 say the delay puts jobs on hold for workers in northern Minnesota, and also threatens the environment because an outdated line will continue carrying tar-sands oil through the state.
