Indigenous groups and other environmental activists marched to the Capitol Friday as they continued a weeklong protest demanding that Congress and the Biden Administration stop new fossil fuel projects and act with greater urgency on climate change. Nearly 80 people were arrested on the fifth day of the "People vs. Fossil Fuels" protest, bringing the total arrested during the week to more than 600, organizers said. Activists pressed President Joe Biden to stop approving new pipelines and other fossil fuel projects and declare a climate emergency. Three of those arrested Friday also were charged with assault on a police officer. White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the administration was "listening to advocates and people who have been elevating the issue of climate for decades.″ The protest was part of "a historic surge of Indigenous resistance" in the nation's capital that started on Monday, Indigenous Peoples' Day, outside the White House, organizers say. More than 100 people were arrested as protesters linked arms and sat along the White House fence line to urge faster action to combat climate change.
