7:28Now PlayingBernie Sanders is standing by Native Americans protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline. John Iadarola, Jimmy Dore, and Michael Shure, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Bernie Sanders has called for US authorities to change the energy system and not build more pipelines at a Dakota Access protest outside the White House. He added that the rally raises an issue that is getting more support across the US.
“I think this is an issue that is gaining more and more support all over the country. It is the issue of climate change, the need to change our energy system and not build more pipelines,” Sanders told RT America’s host and political commentator Ed Schultz. Sanders and Schultz were speaking at the protest against the Dakota Access oil pipeline outside the White House.
According to Sanders, the protest is also “the issue of standing with the people who have been exploited” and “whose treaty rights have been abrogated for years.”
“And I think we have got a shot at this and I am going to do everything I can,” he added.
Sanders joined the hundreds of people who gathered in DC to voice their opposition to the Dakota Access pipeline, which is planned to move crude oil through four states from North Dakota to Illinois.
“This pipeline must be stopped!” Sanders shouted to the crowd of protesters, “Stop the pipeline, respect Native American rights and let us move forward to transform our energy systems away from fossil fuels.”
