Reps. Bruce Westerman, R-Ark., and Peter Stauber, R-Minn., with policy expert Christopher Bedford, argue President Biden's ban on Minnesota mining will put America and its economy 'last.'
that the announcement represents the Biden administration’s intent "to block access to those resources."
Banning mining operations in northern Minnesota for at least 20 years will make U.S. manufacturing more expensive and outsource mineral reserves to China, according to Common Sense Society executive director Christopher Bedford. "If Democrats were serious about developing renewable energy sources and breaking China's stranglehold on the global market, they would be flinging open the doors to responsible mineral development here in the U.S.," Chairman Bruce Westerman, R-Ark., said in a statement.
"We cannot have a future of renewable energy without minerals, period — not to mention their necessity to our defense systems, satellites, cellphones and virtually every other advanced technology. While Democrats play political ping pong with American industries, China and Russia are laughing straight to the bank.
