Recently, The Armed Forces Initiative (AFI) of Back Country Hunters & Anglers took a trip into the BWCA and saw for themselves how valuable this landscape was for its pristine backcountry and the healing that it can offer.
It is critical that Congress now pass the Boundary Waters Wilderness Protection and Pollution Prevention Act led by Rep. Betty McCollum (D-MN). This legislation would permanently withdraw 234,328 acres of public lands in the watershed surrounding the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness from copper-nickel mining development and mineral leasing while still allowing for historic iron taconite mining. Doing so would guarantee the pristine ecological quality and unparalleled hunting and fishing opportunities of the Boundary Waters watershed are maintained. Contact your members of Congress and ask them to permanently protect the BWCA at the link below!
