Nebraska: Over 460,000 Oppose Keystone XL Pipeline in Public Comments
---------------------------------------------------------------------

In Lincoln, Nebraska, activists delivered over 460,000 public comments
Thursday to the state's public service commissioners, urging them to
reject a permit for the proposed Keystone XL pipeline to cross the
state. The pipeline, which was resurrected in March by President Trump,
has faced years of resistance from Native Americans, farmers, ranchers
and environmentalists.
