In Aftermath of Disastrous Mineral Withdrawal, Committee Demands Answers from DOI

Letter

The information will assist the Committee with its ongoing oversight efforts to ensure America's access to essential minerals and the potential manipulation of U.S. tax-exempt organizations to influence America's environmental, natural resource, and energy policies. Moreover, the Committee is alarmed with the Biden administration elevating policies championed by radical eco-activists and far-left nonprofits at the expense of national security, economic, and energy interests...

The Committee is deeply concerned that Biden administration officials potentially held private, undocumented meetings with plaintiffs suing the federal government over the Twin Metals mining permits. The Committee is especially concerned with the Biden administration's general hostility to domestic mining projects as the world continues to require minerals at a growing, unprecedented rate. Indeed, the Committee is alarmed by the Biden administration's ongoing prioritization of the radical demands of radical activists and far-left nonprofits over America's energy and economic interests.

As such, the Committee is interested in learning more about the Twin Metals lease cancellation, the Superior Withdrawal, and any related meetings the Biden administration had with nonprofit entities, especially given the potential manipulation of U.S. tax-exempt organizations to influence America's environmental, natural resource, and energy policies.
