DAPL update: Injunction temporarily halts construction

On the 16th of September, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals issued an "administrative injunction" prohibiting further work on the Dakota Access Pipeline within 20 miles of the Missouri river pending resolution of a lawsuit brought by both the Standing Rock Sioux tribe and the Cheyenne River Sioux tribe against the pipeline. This injunction is not on the merits of the case but gives the court time to hear arguments. Corporate lawyer William Leone from the other side is now whining that the pipeline builders have lost $5 BILLION in market value due to the globally spreading #NoDAPL movement.
