Thank you @lisamurkowski for your leadership 🙏 🐟 @POTUS, Canada’s at least 30 abandoned, operating & developing gold mines along rivers flowing into Alaska threatens all of us downstream - and further imperils our planet’s future. @IJCsharedwaters

[Bloomberg Law: Environment @environment]

Canadian metals mines risk contaminating Southeast Alaska’s rivers, and the White House should withdraw support for them, Sen. Lisa Murkowski said in a letter to President Joe Biden this month. https://t.co/flMjf7JgAX

[SalmonState @SalmonStateAK]

In the federally managed waters off Alaska's coast is a grave injustice: the pollock trawl fleet's prolific bycatch of invaluable species like chum and king salmon, all while Alaskans go without.

EPA chief Michael Regan said he fully supports his agency’s decision to block a proposed gold and copper mine in Alaska’s salmon-rich Bristol Bay, even as the state has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn that action.

Canadian mining companies threaten to deliver toxic waste right to rivers that feed the wildlife & communities of Southeast Alaska. We're calling on the United States federal government to stand with downstream communities and stop Canadian mine dam failures before it's too late.

@chase_gunnell @SeaTimesOpinion Great letter.

[SalmonState @SalmonStateAK]

"Trollers, who sustainably catch salmon one at a time on their hook-and-line gear, appreciate why we need healthy salmon and healthy ecosystems; they live and breathe it every day."

@chase_gunnell Thank you @chase_gunnell !

[Chase Gunnell @chasegunnell]

“to save wild #salmon, we must reach across the aisle and listen to those who might see and approach challenges differently. Rather than … frivolous lawsuits, we need to build relationships and find common ground.”

Nailed it, @SalmonStateAK
