The Cowboy Indian Alliance arrived in Washington, D.C., this morning. The DCIst blog posted a series of photos from the horseback ride to the National Mall. Dozens of participants of all ages carried signs that read "Reject and Protect" and "No KXL Pipeline." The group will hold events on the mall all week. The protest will culminate with a march to the White House on Saturday. Get the Story:
