An Open Letter

To: Sen. Thune, Sen. Rounds

From: A verified voter in Rapid City, SD

April 15

H.J. Res. 140 a resolution that would wipe out the 20-year mining ban protecting the Boundary Waters watershed in Minnesota. 225,000 acres of Superior National Forest. 1,100 lakes. The most visited wilderness in the country. If the Senate passes it and Trump signs it, the protections are gone! And the company that wants to mine there? It’s Chilean-owned Twin Metals, which plans to ship the ore to China. This isn’t “America First.” This is selling out American public lands to foreign interests permanently. Vote NO on H.J. Res. 140!!
