Crowd of 150 - not bad and Iowa also has a fighting group - "100Grannies:
“The voices of landowners, farmers, tribes and environmentalists fighting this illegitimate pipeline were heard loud and clear across the country yesterday,” said Ed Fallon, state director for Bold Iowa. “With Dakota Access moving aggressively to build the pipeline while ignoring landowners’ concerns, and the concerns of the Standing Rock Sioux, more and more people are standing up to stop this pipeline. We expect an even bigger turnout this Saturday than we saw for the first action.”
Hundreds have signed on to risk arrest, and more than 1,550 citizens have pledged volunteer and financial support for direct actions to halt construction of Dakota Access, via the pipeline Bakken Pipeline Pledge of Resistance — organized by Bold Iowa with partners Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement (ICCI), CREDO Action, and the local group 100 Grannies for a Livable Future.
“Every day the resistance to these kinds of fossil fuel projects is growing – here in Iowa and across the country. We are committed to doing everything within our power to leave this oil in the ground and turn the corner for a 100% renewable future that sustains our people, our communities, and our planet,” said Adam Mason, State Policy Director at Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement.
“100Grannies for a Livable, Fossil Free Future are standing up for the rights of landowners, all Iowans, Tribal treaty rights, and the rights of nature. And, of course, we stand for the rights of all future generations of all species. As Ansel Adams said: ‘It is horrifying that we have to fight our own government to save the environment.’ ”
