An open letter to State Governors & Legislatures (Minn. only)
Protect the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness for future generations.
173 so far! Help us get to 250 signers!
The Boundary Waters Permanent Protection Bill (H.F. 309 & S.F. 875) prohibits sulfide-ore copper mining on State lands in the watershed of the Boundary Waters. This bill would protect the Boundary Waters from the inevitable and devastating damage that sulfide-ore copper mining pollution would cause in the watershed.

Vote yes on H.F. 309 and S.F. 875 in the MN legislature!
