"The Defense Production Act is an important tool... that does not mean Congress should reauthorize sweeping emergency powers without real guardrails."
@BettyMcCollum04 sounds off on the dangers of reauthorizing the DPA without Tribal, enviro, and anti-corruption protections.
We are very excited to announce our endorsement of @Keeler4Congress for CD7! As a current Minnesota State Representative, Keeler has proven herself to be a fierce champion for the environment, clean water, and advocate for the permanent protection of the Boundary Waters. 🛶
"If we want permanent protection, we must send more champions to St. Paul who will defend Minnesota’s most treasured Wilderness."
Join us on Oct 23 to discuss how the 2026 elections will impact the BWCAW, and how we can elect Boundary Waters champions.

Last Saturday, former President Trump held a rally in St. Cloud, MN, where he promised to reverse the 20-year ban on toxic mining near the Boundary Waters within the first 10 minutes of a second term. We must keep our momentum to uphold existing protections for Boundary Waters.

This is why we are endorsing @GovTimWalz this November. We need a Governor who supports the small businesses of the outdoors based recreation surrounding the Boundary Waters. The way of life for countless Minnesotans is on the ballot in November.
When we invest in the outdoors and tourism, we are helping Minnesota become a global destination to work, live, and own a business.

We're excited to announce our endorsement of Gov @Tim_Walz and Lt. Gov @peggyflanagan for re-election! The Boundary Waters, Minnesotans and MN's sustainable outdoors economy needs the Walz/Flanagan administration to continue to protect our Wilderness for all generations to come.
