U.S. District Judge Brian Morris allowed the lawsuits to proceed, citing valid claims from Native American tribes about treaty violations. The Native American Rights Fund emphasized the importance of treaties ratified by the Senate. Environmental concerns were highlighted, including a significant oil spill in North Dakota. The Keystone XL pipeline has faced protests for over a decade. While the lawsuits can continue, no injunction was granted to halt pipeline work.
