An Open Letter

To: Sen. Gillibrand, Sen. Schumer

From: A verified voter in Rochester, NY

February 17

Please vote "NO" on H.R. Res 104. It would cause environmental damage on a scale which would take decades, if not centuries, to mitigate due to the toxic chemicals and tailings from the mining. To get an idea of the damages caused by copper mining look into the disasters caused by the old, now closed, mines in the Rockies and Midwest. These lands are wild lands protected for the use and enjoyment of the owners - all Americans. Don't let the Trump administration sell any more of our country to foreign companies for his own purposes and profits. Don't let him steal any more than he already has from the American people. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
