Save Boundary Waters Protections

rainbowboundarywatersweb

The US Senate will vote soon on H.J. Res 140, which would strip protections from the Boundary Waters Canoe Area and allow a Chilean mining firm to create an open-pit copper mine in Superior National Forest in Minnesota. This land, however far away, IS YOUR LAND. Not only that, this action sets up a dangerous precedent that could be used to strip protections from federal public lands across the Southeast. Please speak up and take action today.

Send a Letter to your Senators

Let your U.S. senators know that you oppose dropping any protections from the Boundary Waters and ask them to vote against H.J. Res 140. Let’s keep our precious wild areas wild!
