Environmental Integrity Project: EIP Response to Criminal Arrest Warrant of Louisiana Bucket Brigade Activists for Peaceful Protest Against New Petrochemical Plant

On June 25, 2020, Anne Rolfes and Kate McIntosh of the Louisiana Bucket Brigade were charged with “terrorizing” an oil and gas lobbyist. These charges stem from a peaceful protest that Rolfes and McIntosh took part in back in December, during which they delivered a file box full of plastic pellets, also called nurdles, to an oil and gas lobbyist’s home with an explanatory note. The Environmental Integrity Project calls for the charges against these two activists be dropped immediately.
