I offered an amendment in today's Interior Appropriations markup to strike two riders in the bill that overturn science-backed decisions to protect the #BWCA Wilderness and its precious clean water reserve from the threat of sulfide-ore mining pollution. #SaveTheseWaters
TFW you're a Republican at today's hearing, pushing bills to ignore science, tribal consultation & community input so you can open the pristine Boundary Waters area to toxic mining pollution. Some places are simply too special to mine. #BWCA #SaveTheseWaters
My family ended up in Ely, MN after coming from Slovenia. The Boundary Waters are sacred to me. Mining will irreversibly damage the wilderness & to top it off, the GOP gave the business to a company that isnt even American. If u like this, u aren’t as patriotic as u think #BWCA
I offered a motion to send this bill back to committee. The House should instead consider my bill, the Boundary Waters Wilderness Protection and Pollution Prevention Act, to permanently protect the #BWCA watershed from this type of harmful mining.
Americans love the #BWCA Wilderness for a multitude of reasons—whether for its pristine waters, dark skies, wildlife, or its serene quiet. For the latter, it has earned the title of a “Wilderness Quiet Park!” Learn about the value of noise-free landscapes: quietparks.org/boundary-water…
A serene late summer paddle in the Boundary Waters. 🙌 Let’s protect this pristine wilderness. #relax #Minnesota #bwca
Great to see Minnesotans showing their love for the #BWCA this Valentine’s Day during Boundary Waters Day at the Minnesota State Capitol!
Becky Rom penned a commentary outlining the inappropriate consideration of new mining activities on state lands in the #BWCA watershed & calls on the #mnleg and Congress to act swiftly to enact a permanent ban on sulfide-ore copper mining in the Boundary Waters watershed.

Bringing kids to the #BoundaryWaters is an awesome childhood experience. But, have you ever wondered how exactly parents and guardians do it? Sam Chadwick, Associate Director, shares about her recent #BWCA canoe trip with her little kids: Read the blog: savetheboundarywaters.org/three-little-k…
With every purchase from Boundary, not only will you have a beautiful piece of art, but you'll also be making a positive impact on the environment. Boundary will plant one tree for every piece of work sold. #ad #Minnesota #BWCA #SupportSmallBusiness bit.ly/415uy6B
Had a great time in the #bwca with my two oldest. A lot of great memories! Can’t wait to take them back again!
Pulling some SEL into the upcoming @BoundaryWaters trip w/my two oldest for their first trip in. They’ll also be able to follow along & track our route. -Favorite part -Hardest part -Something you’ll remember -Something you’re thankful for #getoutdoors @mndnr #bwca #camping
On the deep challenge of sustaining the sacred commons without the sacred. #BWCA #HJRes140 open.substack.com/pub/deliberati…
Big news! A popular lake near the #bwca was recognized as impaired for sulfate by @MnPCA - it took years of effort but our tireless water quality monitoring work sheds light on the pollution in Birch Lake. savetheboundarywaters.org/breaking-popul…
With every purchase from Boundary you'll be making a positive impact. Boundary will plant 1 tree for every piece sold. To date, Boundary has planted 100 trees, equivalent to removing 20 cars from the road for an entire year! #ad #BWCA #SupportSmallBusiness bit.ly/415uy6B
Forest Service budget cuts are hitting Northern Minnesota hard—especially the BWCA. Fewer staff means less trail and campsite maintenance, and fewer resources for visitors. I’ll keep fighting to protect and fund our public lands. #BWCA #mnleg paddleandportage.com/2025/04/24/ran…
Shame on Pete Stauber, Detroit Lakes Tribune editors say. Editorial: Jeers to bill that exposes Boundary Waters to sulfide-ore copper mining #mnwater #BWCA tinyurl.com/mu7phsxy

Good News: People are ready to fight for our environment and the Boundary Waters! @SierraClubMN @FBW_Action #BWCAattheCapitol #BWCA
This gets framed politically fast, but the underlying issue is structural. Domestic sourcing matters. So does where and how it’s done. Not every landscape carries the same margin for error. The Boundary Waters are one of those landscapes. #BWCA #Conservation #Boundarywaters
This is a good, honest breakdown. Not a mine approval, more a reopening of the process. The CRA angle is what really changes things long term #boundarywaters #bwca
We need to conserve our National Forests more than ever for the health of ecosystems and the health our planet. Ecocide for short term profit is not wise or sustainable ever. Not yesterday not today. Mining in the #BWCA is another Trump adm. blunder.

This is a little funny because you are feigning outrage about wind turbines killing bald eagles, which is bad, but have no issues with the destruction and irreversible damage that will be done to the #bwca from mining.
Congress must stop this sacrilege. The #BWCA is as sacred as it gets for left, right and independent but most of all for the #WaterProtectors indigenous peoples of Minnesota, Ontario and environs, and all forest creatures for whom this is home.
Last week, the U.S. Senate gave a Chilean billionaire the green light to mine next to the most visited wilderness in America- the Boundary Waters. The ore mined would be sold directly to China. The public was completely cut out of the process. This sets a dangerous precedent for

This is unconscionable. Protect the boundary waters and the thousands of people who make their living because of it….at ANY cost. #BWCA
#Mining in the #BoundaryWaters isn't going to destroy the environment, that's just scare tactics. We will be utilizing our natural resources while preserving what we love about the #BWCA
Two things can be true at once: we can develop our natural resources and protect the Boundary Waters. With modern technology and strong oversight, Minnesota can set the gold standard for clean, responsible mining while preserving what makes our state special. This is an
I've been fishing/canoeing/camping in #BWCA since 1983. It's pristine country that was sold out by the Republican party. I MOSTLY shy from political postings, but this is unforgivable, but hopefully not irreversible. All people regardless of their politics, enjoy this wilderness
BREAKING: The Senate just passed the legislation allowing the devastation of the Boundary Waters. The motion passed 50-49, and now goes to Donald Trump’s desk. The way Republicans passed this bill that prevents future administrations from issuing protections for Superior
this is terrible : outdoorlife.com/conservation/s… protect th boundary waters #BWCA + other natural spaces
We should only mine in poor third world countries for our EV's and phones. There are too many rich white cabin owners in Ely. #bwca #copper #boundarywaterscanoearea #ely Save the planet, mine electric.
@Tim_Walz @GovTimWalz does the MN executive branch have a plan to counter this? Can the DNR revoke the 1990 permit #quetico #superiornationalforest #bwca
Do not lose hope. This fight is not over. We should all be so proud of the coalition we built to fight this. Tribal Nations. Outdoorsmen. Conservationists. Public lands advocates. But most importantly, Minnesotans who deeply appreciate what these waters mean to all of us and our
@RepPeteStauber You are a sellout—of yourself, your country, the environment, and future generations. Here’s hoping you’re sent packing in the midterms. Resign. #bwca
They sing one of my favorite bird songs, "Oh sweet Canada Canada Canada....oh sweet Canada Canada Canada...!" I hear them in the Spring when I'm in the Boreal forest, and usually into a canoe wilderness like the #BWCA.
People aren't understanding just how special the Boundary Waters are. It's cleaner than Glacier, more pristine than Zion, more remote and untamed than Yosemite. It's literally a crown jewel of our planet's natural beauty and he's bragging about ruining it. #BWCA #NotForSale
BREAKING: A major victory for America and Minnesota’s 8th Congressional District was secured today. The Senate just passed my bill to reverse Biden’s illegal mining ban in the Superior National Forest – it’s now headed to the President’s desk! Mining is our past, our present,
