But I want them to put the ban on mining near the bwca back in place.

Trifecta priorities?
Enshrine trans rights
Protect BWCA
My own hobby horse: change law to allow for permanent ban/revocation of driving privileges. This doesn’t currently exist!

What's up @governorwalz.mn.gov this is the air that we Minnesotans breathe, my man. You did great work on the BWCA (though, clearly more needs to be accomplished). Clean Air. Clean Water. Clean Soil.
