Take Action – Call Senators Franken and Klobuchar to Stop the Land Swap!
Recently, Rep. Cravaack introduced H.R.5544 to expedite the exchange of an unknown amount of federally-protected Superior National Forest land for 86,000 acres of state school trust lands contained within the BWCA. If passed, this legislation would open tens of thousands of acres of wildlife habitat to new toxic sulfide mining proposals and other development. Federal ownership carries with it a variety of critical legal protections, and all of these important safeguards would be lost on any National Forest land included in this exchange. In addition, the bill bypasses environmental review and public involvement.
Then, let us know you made the call!
Senator Franken: (202) 224-5641 and (651) 221-1016
Senator Klobuchar: (202) 224-3244 and (612) 727-5220
