How might the recent election results impact the future of Minnesota's cherished wilderness? In this timely episode, Steve Schultz, Government Relations Manager at Friends of the Boundary Waters, examines the shifting political landscape and its implications for the Boundary Waters. The discussion explores both federal and state-level changes, with particular focus on proposed legislation that could affect mining restrictions near this pristine area.
While acknowledging the challenges ahead, Schultz outlines practical ways citizens can help protect the wilderness, from grassroots activism to engaging with elected officials, along with a broader reflection on why the Boundary Waters matter and the importance of preserving this unique wilderness for future generations.
