The Federal challenges continue and threaten our ability to develop Alaska resources and produce minerals, including critical minerals, that the United States is sourcing from unfriendly countries. (As I write this, there are 11 Russian and Chinese warships near the Aleutian Islands). Many of these countries have little to no regard for human rights or environmental protections. As you’ll read in this magazine, new attempts by the BLM to rewrite the way our lands are managed disregard more than a century of mining law, as well as the core principles of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement. The current administration is pushing for a new green energy economy while blocking the mining of the very minerals needed to build the infrastructure. A robust and active AMA is more critical than ever. I hope it has been a productive, enjoyable summer for you. Be safe out there and we will see you this fall!
