Today, a coalition of 76 conservation groups, environmental advocates, and mining reform organizations sent a letter to Members of Congress urging swift passage of the Clean Energy Minerals Reform Act. The bill was introduced by House Natural Resources Committee Chair Raúl M. Grijalva (D-AZ) and Senator Martin Heinrich (D-NM) on April 26, 2022 to reform the hardrock mining law that has governed mining operations since 1872.
