NO on HR 9171 sec 441: SAVE THE BOUNDARY WATERS from destructive foreign mining

2,819 so far! Help us get to 3,000 signers!

Please: Protect the boundary waters! Tell Congress to protect the Boundary Waters by voting *NO on HR 9171, Section 441* which would give federal mineral leases for copper-nickel sulfide mining to a Chilean mining conglomerate at the very edge of the Boundary Waters! Remember that the boundary waters generate more income from tourism than any short term destructive mining done by a foreign conglomerate will. And remember that the boundary waters are a magnificent unspoiled wilderness area of stunning beauty: we are the steward and custodian of our wild places.
