Enbridge is more than half done building the $7.3 billion project. It paused construction for April and May because of the spring thaw, but now says 4,000 workers are expected on the ground by mid-June. Meanwhile, more than 1,000 pipeline opponents are expected in northern Minnesota this weekend for several days of large-scale protests and civil disobedience.

This is an MPR News morning update for Wednesday, June 2, 2021. Hosted by Cathy Wurzer.
