For nearly 150 years, Northern Minnesota has supplied the iron ore that built our nation and strengthened it in times of war.

Now, thanks to my new mining law, Minnesota’s mighty Iron Range is poised to do what it has always done: rise to the challenge and power the next great chapter of American prosperity and security.

At yesterday’s @NatResources hearing, I discussed the reauthorization of the Earth Mapping Resources Initiative (MRI) program with Dr. Colin Williams from @Interior. Expanding critical mineral mapping strengthens domestic supply chains, reduces our dependence on foreign adversaries, and supports American manufacturing. Watch our exchange here:

Chairman @RepWesterman highlighted the bipartisan success of the Committee: “We actually have passed more bills out of our Committee than any other Committee… and I think we’ve also had more bills signed into law than any other Committee.”

I got an early look inside the Lincoln Memorial's undercroft, a space hidden beneath the marble for over 100 years. Visitors can now see the Emancipation Proclamation and the 13th Amendment on display, just in time for America's 250th anniversary.

I was grateful to participate in an in-depth discussion hosted by @SenArmstrong on the need to pass comprehensive permitting reform and get America building again.

American energy and mineral dominance depend on it!

[House Committee on Natural Resources @NatResources]

The U.S. Geological Survey’s Earth Mapping Initiative (Earth MRI) provides essential data needed to better understand our nation’s critical mineral resources.

This week’s Energy and Mineral Resources oversight hearing examined the importance of Earth MRI and its role in supporting the critical minerals that drive the economy and strengthen national security.

[House Committee on Natural Resources @NatResources]

Critical minerals are the backbone of national security, modern supply chains & the U.S. economy.

Hear about the importance of the U.S. Geological Survey’s Earth Mapping Resources Initiative (Earth MRI), which provides foundational data to modernize how we understand the nation’s surface and subsurface resources.

Tune in as we dig into the details!

We are proud to support innovative efforts to maintain our national parks and public lands.

Congratulations to @RepWesterman and @RepHuffman for passing the America the Beautiful Act out of committee.

Let's get this done!

“As we celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, we have a unifying opportunity to invest in the stewardship of the lands and landmarks that define who we are as a nation. This legislation builds on the success of the Great American Outdoors Act, sustaining an innovative approach for funding upkeep of our national parks and forests while recognizing the beneficial role visitor fees play in supporting public lands. PERC looks forward to working with Congress to continue improving how we reliably care for these cherished places.”

Today, the House Natural Resources Committee advanced the bipartisan Great American Outdoors Act 250. Once passed, this legislation will support access for hunters and anglers and invest in habitat conservation on public lands.

We thank Chairman @RepWesterman & Ranking Member @RepHuffman for their leadership. #DuckPolicy

The Great American Outdoors Act 250 would invest nearly $1.9 billion annually for five years to restore America’s decaying national parks and public lands in celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. @DouglasKBlair

🚨Great American Outdoors Act 250 passed by the House Natural Resources Committee! Sponsored by @RepWesterman @RepHuffman, it addresses deferred maintenance on federal lands & improves hunting/fishing access. Thank you @NatResources @NRDems H2C urges the full House to do the same

[Congressman Nick Begich @RepNickBegich]

Today, @NatResources advanced the Great American Outdoors Act 250, bipartisan legislation to modernize and maintain America's national parks and recreation infrastructure.

Alaska is home to some of the world's most iconic public lands, and investing in infrastructure and maintenance is critical to preserving access and ensuring responsible stewardship.

As a proud cosponsor of this legislation, I'm pleased to support this effort to address maintenance backlogs and help ensure our public lands remain accessible for future generations of Americans.

[Pete Stauber @RepPeteStauber]

As we prepare to celebrate America’s 250th birthday, it is the perfect moment to ensure our federal lands and national parks are cared for and protected.

That’s why I joined my @NatResources Committee colleagues in advancing the Great American Outdoors Act 250 to improve public access and preserve these special places for generations to come.
