This week, the environmental protesters are calling for an end to all new fossil fuel exploration/extraction and the immediate stop to taxpayer subsidies to oil companies.
As we’ve reported … Jane’s army has been at it since October. She’s gotten arrested on numerous occasions as have some of her famous pals … including Sally Field, Ted Danson, Sam Waterson and Rosanna Arquette.
Jane’s been cuffed 4 times and has to avoid getting locked up a fifth time because it could lead to substantial jail time. Her FDF folks have been adamant they can’t afford that cause they need her around for her leadership.
This is the last FDF protest in D.C. … next up is California.
