Creating jobs is necessary to fuel America’s economic recovery, and policymakers are realizing that to do that, the U.S. must have a healthy manufacturing sector.

House committee approves Boundary Waters bill
The bill, sponsored by U.S. Rep. Chip Cravaack, R-North Branch, seeks to settle an issue that arose in 1978 when Congress drew the current boundaries for the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and didn't account for the state land within those boundaries.

In response: BWCAW deal not about mining vs. preservation
To say the Star Tribune’s editorial of July 6 was filled with inaccuracies would be kind. (The editorial was republished Sunday by the News Tribune under the headline, “Who benefits from BWCAW land swap? Industry is the big winner, and the bill needs scrutiny.”)

Other View: BWCA land swap bill needs scrutiny
For all the big talk in northern Minnesota these days, you’d think a pot of gold had been discovered deep in the Boundary Waters — enough to rescue the state’s public schools from penury if only tree-huggers would get out of the way. Too bad it’s largely a fairy tale.

Congressman's View: Schools will receive money from BWCA land swap for decades
Just last week, the Star Tribune editorial board insinuated I am pushing the land exchange to receive future campaign contributions from “large international mining companies.” Never mind I will be self-term limited out of office before any mining would begin; this kind of casual, baseless accusation of criminal wrongdoing demonstrates what is wrong with our politics today.

Reader's View: Cravaack land-swap bill could keep programs in schools
In the past couple of years there has been much discussion about the Red Plan, the cost of it and what it would or would not do for the students of Duluth. I find it interesting that during these discussions we never heard much about school trust fund lands, which were established in 1858 so revenue from them could benefit the public school systems of the state (MN Statue 127A.31).

Local view: Land swap bill a bad deal for children, a good deal for mining companies
In his May 24 commentary in the News Tribune (Congressman’s View: “Preserve and protect BWCAW; return trust lands to students”), U.S. Rep. Chip Cravaack explained that about 86,000 acres of state-owned school trust lands are locked inside the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and cannot generate money for the state school trust fund. He stated as his goal to “preserve and protect the Boundary Waters and allow state-owned school trust lands to raise revenue for Minnesota education.”
