Neil Young questioned on Monday (Dec. 5) whether President Barack Obama will stand up to the corporate interests pushing for the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL), following the Army Corps of Engineers' decision to look for an alternate route for the project.
The DAPL project has been highly controversial due to concerns it will taint local drinking water around the Standing Rock Standing Rock Indian Reservation in North Dakota, where thousands of protesters have spent weeks camped out.
In a post to Young's Facebook page, the iconic rocker asked what Obama will do if the project developers decide to move ahead despite the Army Corps' decree.
