Archie used to take our kids to the Boundary Waters every summer. It was a yearly reminder of how lucky we are to be able to enjoy the natural resources Minnesota has to offer. On Earth Day, let’s do our part to take care of our planet so future generations can enjoy it, too.

We need our legislators to enact #ProveItFirst law ASAP! #MnLeg must tighten up our lax laws and get serious about protecting water for all Minnesotans.
“In January, the Biden Adminstration declared a 20-year moratorium on this type of mining on about 225,000 acres, a historic step guided by a scientific analysis outlining the risk to this watershed.” Minnesota must now do it’s part to protect the BWCA: https://t.co/jtS39TCadF

GovTimWalz Please support a #ProveItFirst Law for MN! This is a common-sense way to protect the BWCA and Lake Superior from certain pollution. Minnesota is not a test subject, PIF ensures our essential waterways will not be the guinea pig for dangerous mining. #mnleg

Hey @RepPeteStauber - see the @WSJ today? A mining company with a questionable record on environmental protection is so offended by the conduct of @Glencore that it doesn't want them as a partner. #ProveItFirst @JenMcEwenMN @FriendsBWCAW @DuluthWater

#ProveItFirst “[Sulfide mining companies] can’t do it safely… they want to pass all the costs off on us, the water and our communities. They’re going to take that money and they’re going to be gone.” -Senator Jen McEwen #BWCADay #BoundaryWaters #LakeSuperior #MN @FriendsBWCAW

The crowd and the canoe on their way to deliver postcards to @GovTimWalz calling on him to protect our waters, and make sure copper-sulfide mining corporations can #ProveItFirst before we let them build mines in Minnesota.

Those Georgia Republicans are #PPPPete in #Mn08’s kind of people. @PeteStauber has yet to meet a polluter he wouldn’t take a donation from. #ProveItFirst
Georgia Republicans move closer to allowing mining in Okeefenokee swamp.

I’m totally alarmed! #Mnleg must pass #ProveItFirst during the upcoming 2025 session, while we still have the trifecta and ability to protect our water!
“Alarm bells should be going off statewide in the wake of a new exploration plan.” @StribOpinion gets it right in this editorial calling for state legislation to protect our waters from sulfide mining. https://t.co/2SyBCgg7Uo Pass #ProveItFirst! #mnleg

Senator @Morrison4MN is a proud coauthor of #ProveItFirst. "Copper sulfide mining is well known to be risky, done by international conglomerates with terrible track records of destruction. We must have strong laws in place to be good stewards of our water. We must be fierce."
