The pipeline protest criminalization
law is going to court now.
The lawsuit, filed
Wednesday by the Center for Constitutional Rights, argues that the law
is “so vague, overly broad, and sweeping in scope that people in the
state cannot be sure of where in the vicinity of Louisiana’s vast
125,000-mile network of pipelines they can legally be present, who
decides where they can be present, or what conduct is prohibited.”
“Its actual aim,” the suit continues, “is to chill, and harshly
punish, speech and expression in opposition to pipeline projects.”
