The All Our Relations Snake River Campaign is a two-week, Indigenous-led campaign that aims to bring attention to the urgent need to remove the four lower Snake River dams as part of a comprehensive solution.

We are at a critical moment in the struggle to restore the Snake River system, bring salmon back to abundance, honor the promises made to Tribal Nations, and help endangered orca who rely on the salmon for food.  

Restoring a free-flowing Snake River would honor the promises made to Tribal Nations and their lifeways, open up cold water habitat, fight the effects of climate change, and allow the river to fulfill its role in caring for the salmon, orca and the other wildlife who rely on a healthy river. The impacts of a free-flowing Snake River would also expand to the tens of thousands of people who depend on the river for fishing, hunting, renewal and recreation, and more.  

We need elected officials to work with Tribes, the principal dialogue partners, as well as other impacted communities and sectors to develop and implement a comprehensive plan now, before it’s too late for salmon and the orca, ecosystems, and communities that depend on them. 

Events will feature an 8-foot in diameter steel sculpture, hand crafted for the journey by Lummi Nation members A. Cyaltsa Finkbonner and Master Carver Jewell James that represents a vision of ‘All Our Relations’.
