North Dakota Gets $38M Reimbursement

North Dakota’s long-awaited federal settlement pays out over $27 million to reimburse state costs from the 2016-2017 Dakota Access Pipeline protests, bringing total reimbursements to nearly $38 million — including a prior $10 million DOJ grant. The governor calls it overdue justice, finally closing the book on a multi-year legal battle that saw over 700 arrests, cleanup of millions of pounds of debris, and involvement of nearly 200 agencies. With both sides asking the court to finalize the deal, taxpayers can now rest easy — no more appeals, no more bills. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
