Since they’re abusing the Congressional Review Act to get around the filibuster, I am reserving some of my time so I can make closing remarks in the morning before the final vote. Maybe they’ll listen to reason after a night’s sleep. Stay tuned. Save the Boundary Waters.

I’m holding the Senate floor tonight in protest of legislation that would allow a copper-nickel sulfide mine on the doorstep of the Boundary Waters. Not this mine. Not this place.

SENATOR HOLDS THE FLOOR TO DEFEND THE BOUNDARY WATERS

70% of Minnesotans do NOT want copper nickel mining near the Boundary Waters. The Senate has a chance to do right by them by leaving the mining moratorium in place.

As soon as today, the US Senate will vote on a House resolution that allows copper mining by a Chilean company near Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. The Boundary Waters is the most-visited wilderness area in the country, and it cannot be replaced.

This is not a drill: The Senate is poised to blow up Boundary Waters mining protections, columnist Jill Burcum writes.

Not this mine. Not this place. Save our Public Lands. Save the Boundary Waters.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govApr 13(source)

The Boundary Waters don’t just belong to Minnesotans. They’re the birthright of every single American. Why would we let a foreign mining company ruin them just so they can mine OUR resources, ship them off to China and enrich their shareholders?

Not this mine. Not this place. Tell Congress: NO on HJRes 140!

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govApr 13(source)

The threat to the Boundary Waters isn’t just about Minnesota — the legislative gymnastics being thrust upon us to allow copper-nickel mining in this watershed would mean no public lands are ever truly protected. We would be opening Pandora’s box… for what? The profits of a foreign mining company?

From the guy who promised to “bring back American manufacturing” …the irony would be comical if it weren’t so frustrating

Trump, who has promoted "Buy America" policies and vowed to protect American steel, has secured tens of millions of dollars worth of donated foreign steel for his $400 million ballroom project, report @anaswanson.bsky.social and @lukebroadwater.bsky.social. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/08/u...

Can’t trust a word they say. They’re lying about what they’re doing in Minnesota and across the country. This is exactly why I’m not voting for a single penny for ICE or CBP without massive, agency-wide changes.

Today is day 127 of the ICE occupation of MN. ICE is still here. Neighbors are still being abducted. So we’re here too. Still carrying whistles. Still standing watch in our neighborhoods. Still doing mutual aid. Still fighting for ICE OUT EVERYWHERE.

NEW: Since Donald Trump waged war on Iran, Americans have paid over $8 BILLION MORE for gas.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govApr 8(source)

Americans are less safe and paying more for gas and everyday goods. He wasted billions of dollars on an unjustified war and we are worse off because of it.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govApr 8(source)

Grateful there wasn’t further escalation, but this ceasefire is anything but a win. So much chaos and pain for an ill-conceived war. A massive strategic failure.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govApr 7(source)

Republicans should be calling us back to DC right now. We should be voting to stop him.

Threatening to wipe out an entire civilization is morally bankrupt and a major war crime, risking the lives of innocent civilians - including children. He seems detached from reality. I don’t know who (if anyone) can get through to him. Congress needs to step in and stop him.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govApr 7(source)

Not to mention the serious danger this poses to American troops and risk of entrapping us in another endless war in the Middle East that nobody asked for.
