I’m using my executive authority to ban nonferrous mining in the Boundary Waters.    As far as my administration is concerned, the fight for the future of the Boundary Waters is over. The verdict is in. The decision is made. We will protect this place.

Walz once again being turbo goated. Not letting Chilean billionaires mine the boundary waters and sell it to the Chinese is the most pro-Minnesota move.

Lame duck governor takes a break for solo golfing before he sneaks out of the stake he’s ruined - to make a 612 decision to hurt 218 workers and put the USA forever beholden to China’s rare earth metals. Vote @LisaDemuthMN to prevent a 3rd Walz term under @amyklobuchar

Timmy the tyrant is at it again thinking he has the power, but doesn't. They aren't mining in the boundary waters, dummy. Doing that is against federal law.

There are no proposals to mine in the Boundary Waters. That's pure deceit. BWCA is already a protected area. Walz is just trying to ban mining in all of Northern Minnesota.

Gov Walz, Thank you from Aitkin MN!!!! @RepPeteStauber THIS is how you keep the lakes and rivers that we need for our children, and our children’s children. @RepPeteStauber, you sold out to a foreign company, pretending there would be jobs &NO pollution. A shameless Trump shill.

You don’t give two shits about the people who need good paying jobs in Minnesota. You’re nothing but a fool, and you’ve proven that to Americans.

So let’s see if I understand this. 1. Tim and the DFL strongly support Net Zero and a Green Agenda. 2. To implement this, we need massive amounts of cooper and nickel. 3. The boundary waters are has large deposits of cooper and nickel. 4. But this mining is far too dirty to do in this area, even though we are rich enough to do this mining as cleanly as possible. 5. So Tim’s answer is to mine cooper and nickel in third world countries where it will be done as dirty and destructive as possible, and will ruin the environment for poor people. 6. Tim sees this as a win, because…?

THANK YOU!! I am crying at work and don’t care who knows it. The BWCA is worth FAR more, as is, than any possible benefit from the mining that threatens it. Gov. Walz, you are my hero.
