Dear John,

The fate of our nation lies in limbo as votes continue to be counted. This means the fate of the Boundary Waters does, too. 

Unfortunately, U.S. Rep. Pete Stauber is stepping up his attack on the Boundary Waters now that he’s tightened his hold on Northeastern Minnesota. Just yesterday, he said he’s going to champion “critical mineral dominance,” which we know includes green-lighting toxic and unpopular copper mining in the headwaters of America’s most visited Wilderness.

But we have a window to act now. The countdown for the fate of the Boundary Waters starts on Monday as this U.S. Congress enters the period before the next Congress is seated in January. The Senate and the House can act to pass the Boundary Waters Permanent Protection Bill during this important window of time!

We can’t let Congress fritter away this chance. The clock is ticking, and we need action on Boundary Waters protection before Congress adjourns for the year.

We must take advantage of the headwind we have right now to pass Rep McCollum’s Boundary Waters protections bill. 

This moment, before Congress adjourns for the year, is our last best chance. 

Help us continue to fight to protect the Boundary Waters before Congress adjourns for the year. When you make a gift to the Campaign to Save the Boundary Waters before midnight on November 17, your dollars will be doubled up to $150,000! Give today. This special match opportunity comes from a group of generous donors who know we can't afford to ease up.

For the Wilderness, 


Ingrid Lyons
