“ It's up to Gov. Walz to end secrecy over Twin Metals mine” [[link removed]] : Star Tribune Editorial Board, August 23, 2019.
" For months, the Trump administration has blown off requests from influential members of Congress, the Star Tribune Editorial Board and others to make public the science gathered during an aborted study of mining’s risks to a Minnesota treasure — the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness…Tim Walz ought to wield the immense leverage he has as the state’s CEO to lift this contemptible veil of secrecy. Walz should order the Department of Natural Resources and the Pollution Control Agency to suspend permitting work involving the proposed Twin Metals Minnesota mine until the feds release the data. ” [1]
Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota can permanently protect the Boundary Waters from sulfide-ore copper mining and stand up to the Trump Administration's actions to force through this dangerous mining on the edge of America's most-visited Wilderness. Tell Governor Walz to Stand Up and Protect the Boundary Waters.

Federal agencies are ignoring their responsibility to protect lands around the Boundary Waters and have refused to complete the required environmental review or even release data related to risks to the Wilderness. It's time for Minnesota leaders, especially Governor Walz, to take action. The Governor needs to hear from you and thousands of Americans who want to protect this wild and beautiful place.
Send your message to Governor Walz today. [[link removed]]
