Support the Boundary Waters Wilderness Act

Sulfide-ore copper mining, a particularly toxic type of mining that is guaranteed to pollute, threatens the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness—one of America’s most visited wilderness areas.

The Boundary Waters Wilderness Protection and Pollution Prevention Act addresses the urgent need to protect 234,328 acres in the Superior National Forest from copper-nickel mining development. Call on Congress to support this bill and protect the Boundary Waters for generations to come.
