Strongly agree

No, but reroute the pipeline away from Native American land

Many Democrats would likely support rerouting the pipeline away from Native American land as a compromise, as it addresses concerns about indigenous rights while still allowing for the pipeline's construction. For example, President Obama's administration temporarily halted the pipeline's construction in 2016 to explore alternative routes.
