We stopped the Keystone XL pipeline!  Take a moment to pat yourself on the back.  I sure tried to enjoy the moment, as well as the flood of emails I received from friends and family across the county who were just as excited as I am.

The video below is an excellent wrap up of the campaign and has Jane Kleeb of Bold Nebraska and Bill McKibbin of 350.org’s immediate thoughts after the victory.

Bill also plugs the action happening on Tuesday the 24th here in DC. As Congress returns to business, we’ll be ready to blow the whistle on their corruption. Hundreds will gather at the Capitol dressed in referee uniforms, and then heading to the American Petroleum Institute – Big Oil’s top lobby – to do the same.  Check out the facebook event here if you are interested in attending!

As Bill McKibbin said in this video- this is a “real victory for people standing up. ” So here’s to standing up for what you believe in!
