Louisiana activist group outlines 2018 focus areas

1

 The Louisiana Bucket Brigade has identified three main focus areas for action in 2018: “Exposing and unravelling
Big Oil's jobs myth, organizing faith communities to participate in a year of prayer for Cancer Alley, and expanding
our air monitoring program.”
Organizers noted that “in this past year, with your help, we have successfully fought to pre-empt the expansion of a
polluting refinery in St. Rose, organized public opposition to the proposed Bayou Bridge Pipeline, and joined other
groups in suing the EPA to expedite implementation of an important chemical safety rule, among other
achievements. And starting on January 1, we’re right back at it, redoubling our efforts to safeguard our environment
and protect the health and safety of our fellow Louisianans.”
On 4 January 2018 the Brigade will live stream from a hearing regarding the Bayou Bridge Pipeline at St. James
Parish starting at 12.15pm. “Hear from local residents, like Pastor Joseph, who would be impacted by the pipeline
as well as representatives from the Tulane Environmental Law Clinic who are righteously helping to STOP IT.
SPREAD THE WORD!
The Brigade is also supporting the L’eau Est La Vie Pipeline occupation camp that has been established to oppose
the Bayou Bridge pipeline on its route.
Lt. General Russel Honoré of the GreenARMY has circulated a fundraising appeal for the Brigade, noting that they
are a key member of his GreenARMY.

In the case of terrorism, to wait for an indication of crime before investigating it is to wait too long. There is no 
guarantee of success, but there has to be a guarantee of effort. Let’s make it hard to hurt us. If you see something 
suspicious, report it.
