Prove It First Bill Introduction - Press Conference

Today, we joined Senator Jen McEwen and Representative Jess Hanson to introduce the critical Prove-It-First bill at the Minnesota State Capitol. This bill requires independent scientific proof that a copper-sulfide mine can operate without polluting before a single mine could be approved in Minnesota.
At Friends, we know the science is clear. America's most polluting industry is not compatible with the water-rich environment of northeastern Minnesota. Prove-It-First will protect ALL of Minnesota's watersheds from this polluting industry including the Boundary Waters, Lake Superior, the St. Croix River, and the Mississippi River.
Help us get this critical law passed by contacting your state legislators and telling them to support Prove-It-First using the link below!
