Hi John,
Yesterday in Congress, the Boundary Waters was a focal point of two Congressional hearings. One promoted more copper mining in our public lands, especially near the Boundary Waters, and the other hearing sought to limit our ability to defend the Boundary Waters in court.
The attacks our Wilderness faces are mounting. This onslaught of anti-public lands and pro-extraction legislation and anti-Wilderness Congressional hearings are only ramping up. Representative Stauber and his cronies are doing everything they can to destroy the hard-fought for and won protections we achieved earlier this year. |
