Happy 251st, U.S. Navy. Its ships and jet engines depend on critical minerals. NE Minnesota has them in the ground—let's get Minnesotans to work and access them. Say #YesMN to mining and to jobs.
The Hermantown City Council unanimously approved an Alternative Urban Areawide Review (AUAR) for a proposed Google data center this week. The approval allows the project to continue moving through the regulatory process. Jobs for Minnesotans supports saying #YesMN to progress.

Meet Twin Metals team member Jordan, a fourth-generation Ely resident, a veteran and an outdoorsman. He calls Ely home — and that’s exactly why responsible mining matters to him. Learn more about his story here: twin-metals.com/miningdoneri…
The DNR’s cancellation of a Twin Metals mineral lease is a blow to the Iron Range. Minnesotans deserve access to good-paying jobs close to home and a fair, consistent, science-based process that encourages investment and job creation. Full statement: jobsforminnesotans.org/bulle…
Minnesota's own DNR concluded that our mining rules are adequate to protect the Rainy River watershed. Now, those rules are being bypassed by Governor Walz’s executive order—putting thousands of good-paying jobs at risk. Full statement: jobsforminnesotans.org/bulle…

“Gov. Walz ran and was elected on a responsible mining platform. Today's executive order is a complete reversal of that position as his action is arbitrary and unnecessary. It is already illegal to mine in the Boundary Waters, and the Governor knows it."

The minerals powering America's military, AI, and clean energy are right here in Minnesota—and in April, the DNR determined we can mine them safely. That means thousands of good-paying union jobs for Minnesota workers. Read why in this week's @TIME: time.com/article/2026/06/15/…
Civic engagement and green shirts were on full display last night as the Hermantown community gathered to discuss the proposed Google data center. Thanks to the mayor and councilors for their leadership and to Google for sharing a preview of the project. #YesMN
Today, the Senate passed H.J. Res. 140, overturning the 20-year mineral withdrawal in MN. The resolution opens 225,000+ acres for exploration and development of critical minerals and unlocks thousands of jobs on the Iron Range. Full statement: jobsforminnesotans.org/bulle…
Per @mndeed, Minnesota's unemployment rate is 4.4%—the highest in 5 years. Minnesota is home to billions of critical minerals and thousands of potential jobs. Business and labor agree—let’s put Minnesota to work. mn.gov/deed/newscenter/press…
