\n

Only one House Democrat joined Republicans on Wednesday in a vote to repeal a Biden-era regulation<\/a> on public lands in Minnesota.<\/p>\n

The bill, <\/a>sponsored by Rep. Pete Stauber, R-Minn., passed in a 214-208 vote.<\/p>\n

Rep. Jarred Golden, D-Maine, voted in favor of the legislation while one Republican, Don Bacon, R-Neb., voted against it.<\/p>\n

The public lands bill is the most recent in a string of regulations Republicans<\/a> have undone in the 119th Congress \u2014 accounting for at least 10 such measures in 2025.<\/p>\n

ZELDIN OVERHAULS BIDEN-ERA WATER RULE TO END \u2018WEAPONIZATION\u2019 THAT LED \u2018PUDDLES\u2019 TO TRIGGER PRICY PERMITS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

In this case, lawmakers voted to reopen the door to mineral development on federal lands in the North Star State<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The resolution before us today does not mandate projects, mining sites, firms, or schedules \u2014 it simply reverses the Biden administration\u2019s unilateral short-circuiting of the normal permitting process,” House Natural Resource Committee Chairman Bruce Westerman, R-Ark., said on the House floor.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s a step towards the mineral abundance that the American people deserve and that Washington, [D.C.] has denied them for too long,” Westerman added.<\/p>\n

Stauber, the sponsor, framed access to Minnesota\u2019s deposits as a part of larger national interests.<\/p>\n

“America\u2019s national security<\/a> depends on securing our own critical minerals \u2014 not just relying on imports from adversaries,” Stauber said in a post to X.<\/a><\/p>\n

“We must unleash domestic production, including in Minnesota\u2019s Iron Range, to power our military, energy grid and future [technology.]”<\/p>\n

TRUMP ADMIN IMPLODES LITERAL BIDEN ROADBLOCK WITH POTENTIAL TO UNLEASH MAJOR MINING WINDFALL<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

According to the Minnesota government website,<\/a> the state has rich deposits of gold, silver, zinc, copper, nickel, titanium and other precious metals.<\/p>\n

Democrats opposed<\/a> to the measure argued that it would open up Minnesota\u2019s land to development, casting aside safeguards for environmental protections.<\/p>\n

That was the position of Rep. Jared Huffman, D-Calif., the top Democrat on the House Natural Resources Committee.<\/p>\n

“The Boundary Waters have been under threat for years,” Huffman said, referring to the area near the northern tip of the state. “They draw more visitors than any other wilderness in the country. Millions of Americans have paddled, fished, swum and found pristine solace in [its] forests. It supports a billion-dollar outdoor economy.”<\/p>\n

In addition to pollution concerns, Huffman noted that the bill would allow mining access to groups with longstanding interests in the area \u2014 some of which, he warned, might not be aligned with national interests.<\/p>\n

“Twin Metals, a mining company with close ties to China<\/a>, has been lobbying for years to set up a mine just outside the wilderness area,” Huffman said.<\/p>\n

“There\u2019s no guarantee that the precious minerals produced from this mine would stay in the U.S. at all.”<\/p>\n

Having passed the House, the measure now heads to the Senate for the upper chamber’s consideration.\u200b<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
