The Cowboy Indian Alliance arrived in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday to protest the controversial Keystone XL Pipeline. The Washington Post, The New York Times and The Ottawa Citizen posted video reports from the horse ride into the National Mall. Participants are camping there all week to raise awareness of the impacts of proposed pipeline on water, sacred sites and the environment. The protest will culminate with a march to the White House on Saturday to urge President Barack Obama to reject the permit for the pipeline. The State Department has delayed review of the project due to litigation in Nebraska and to review the large number of comments submitted by the public. Get the Story:
