Madison — In reaction to a federal court decision issued Friday in the case surrounding the Enbridge Line 5 pipeline, Wisconsin Building Trades Council Executive Director Emily Pritzkow issued the following statement:

“Judge Conley’s decision affirms the Line 5 relocation project and efforts to move permitting forward are more important than ever. We hope this ruling serves as a catalyst for the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources to advance the permitting process for this project, which has been pending for over three years. Wisconsin’s best-trained and highly-skilled workers are ready to construct the safest pipeline in the country with the Line 5 relocation. It is time to put them to work.”
