    Read here about the corrupt and ignorant people who want to allow foreign owned sulfide mining companies to destroy the Boundary Waters and Lake Superior watershed. Tell @amyklobuchar and @TinaSmithMN that the answer is NO.https://nyti.ms/2z2M2Dr

        I will defend @amyklobuchar as I defend @JoeBiden against unfair personal attacks and accusations, but a candidate’s record on sulfide mining in the Great Lakes region is a matter of public record. The answer to that is a hard NO.

        They are doing the same thing here in Michigan's Upper Peninsula at the Back 40 mine. A foreign conglomerate wants to build the largest open pit sulfide mine in the world -- thirty miles up river from Green Bay on Lake Michigan

        Ouch - heard a little about this (as Minnesotan transplanted to UK 20 years ago) but hadn't realized it was *this* close to the BWCA. No no no no no.

        The issue seems straightforward to me. Essentially whenever a decision by government with privatized gain and socialized loss we lose. Why is it so difficult to (1) estimate max impact (2) require an insurance bond OUTSIDE of bankruptcy organization to cover ALL ANTICIPATED $

        Where in this article does it talk about corruption and ignorance. I have mixed feelings after reading this. Can you refer me to some of the corruption? I feel the Roms came across as quite condescending in the article.

        As a voter, this would be a "deal breaker" 4 my vote. Risking the poisoning of r natural resources as precious as "water" is despicable. We don't need more pretend Dems siding with Trump's polluters. Vote them out.

        This is what happens when I ask @amyklobuchar anything about Sulfide Mining: Pretty much what happened when I pressed Hillary Clinton about the future of Teachers in America. Now we have Devos. I will not make the same mistake again.pic.twitter.com/WQTCkchb11
