#ThankYouPresidentBiden 🥳👏👏🥳

The Biden administration issued a 20-year moratorium on mining in a 225,504-acre area of land near #Minnesota's #BoundaryWatersCanoeArea Wilderness.

The US Dept of the Interior order will close roughly 350 square miles of the Superior National Forest and the Rainy River Watershed near Ely to mineral and geothermal leasing for 20 years — the longest amount of time it can issue the moratorium without congressional approval. #bwca
