Hello John,
This is the last week until Congress adjourns for the year, and Rep. Stauber and his anti-Wilderness cronies in D.C. are spending it rushing to undo Boundary Waters protections.
They are pushing aggressively to reverse the 20-year ban on mining in the BWCA watershed we received this year and reinstate permits to Antofagasta that were rightfully canceled in 2022.
Rush a 2X year-end gift to help us defend the Boundary Waters against these forces >> [[link removed]]

Our legislative advocacy work is crucial to protecting the Boundary Waters watershed permanently. Did you know that Save the Boundary Waters is the only nonprofit that is the voice of the Boundary Waters protection movement at both a federal level in Washington D.C. and a state level in Minnesota?
*
That’s
what
makes
us
the
leader
in
protecting
the
Boundary
Waters
watershed
permanently
-
and
we
will
not
give
up
until
we
prevail.


*
For
ten
years,
we
have
been
building
relationships
and
strengthening
our
strategy
to
protect
the
Wilderness.
We’ve
led
more
than
1,000
meetings
to
protect
the
BWCA
in
Washington
D.C.,
that
spanned
three
different
federal
administrations.
We cannot lose momentum when the Boundary Waters needs us most. That's why Patagonia's Holdfast Collective has offered a $175,000 matching gift challenge to fund our advocacy work - but only if supporters like you step up by December 31st. Act now to have your gift doubled.
We will fight tooth and nail to protect wild places from exploitation. We tirelessly advocate to protect this boreal Wilderness permanently, but we can’t do this without Boundary Waters defenders like you on our side.
This next year is crucial for Canoe County. But we need your help. People like you power the movement to protect the Boundary Waters. We won't lose the Boundary Waters to foreign mining interests and a Congress that doesn’t represent the will of the people if we stand together. Please join me in the fight for the Wilderness by making a 2X gift.
