application programs at the Department.

one of the world’s largest insurers of new oil and gas projects. Join us
as we take disruptive direct action , demanding that these companies

Mark your
calendars: Mi’kmaq
grandmothers to visit DC on Thursday, June 20 from Nova Scotia. Come
hear their stories of protecting sacred indigenous land from the false
claims and reckless pipeline plans of Washington Gas’s parent company,
AltaGas, in Canada.
Cheryl and April Maloney, who led the Mi’kmaq campaign, will tell their
story with words, photos, and video. They’ll describe their “spiritual”
campaign that began with the building of a sacred fire near the gas
company’s proposed pipeline operation, invoking the spirit and guidance
of their ancestors. For nearly ten years, these heroic leaders fought –
and won – a bruising pipeline fight against AltaGas.
Along the way, they encountered the kind of false claims, greed, and
fossil fuel expansion efforts that Washington Gas now demonstrates
almost daily across DC, Maryland and Northern Virginia.
