Hundreds of students from more than 40 universities and 42 states set up mock oil spills outside of Secretary of State John Kerry’s house and the White House while others zip-tied themselves to the White House fence.
University students joined more than 1,000 young protesters to march from Georgetown University to the White House March 2 as part of XL Dissent, a protest against the proposed Keystone XL pipeline extension. Students sought to pressure President Barack Obama to reject the extension later this year.
