Salisbury. MD – More than a thousand protesters have been arrested outside the White House, trying to persuade the administration not to give the final okay for construction of the Keystone XL pipeline that would bring tar sand oil from Canada to Texas for refining. John Grout with the Wicomico Environmental Trust demonstrated outside the White House and talks about the issue of the pipeline.
