Democratic Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse criticized the repeal. Bending the knee to the wishes of the fossil fuel industry appears to have no limits.

Yeah, the company is Energy Transfer. It's based in Dallas, and it claims Greenpeace and other activists conspired to raise money, incite protests, hurt the company's reputation, and delay construction of its Dakota Access Pipeline. Energy Transfer didn't respond to our interview request, but co-founder and now executive chairman Kelsey Warren did answer questions on CNBC back in 2017.

There were thousands of protesters who traveled to North Dakota and camped out near the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation. The pipeline route is just north of there. There were clashes with police. At one point, officers used water cannons on protesters in below-freezing temperatures. Still, the 1,100-mile pipeline was finished, and it's been transporting oil since 2017. Construction was delayed.

Essentially, a wealthy company takes a less wealthy critic to court, forcing them to spend time and money defending themselves rather than protesting. Sushma Raman is the interim executive director at Greenpeace USA and says this is a free speech issue.
