This decision is just more proof that we need substantive permitting reform in this country. We simply cannot afford to have good mining projects caught up in endless litigation and extended delays. As we do nothing, adversarial nations like China are rapidly producing the critical minerals necessary for every aspect of our daily lives. Rather than continuing to rely on Communist China, I personally would rather see Minnesota’s miners produce these resources here at home under the strongest environmental and labor standards in the world." ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:35:26Z |
