Sen. Jim Abeler

A “No” vote means no updates to our current permitting rules for energy projects which would slow our clean energy transition, and not funding for contaminated water remediation projects.

A “Yes” vote means Minnesota will begin to reduce our waste stream and make new investments in clean drinking water projects and PFAS remediation, community tree planting grants, and more programs that protect and preserve our natural resources.

A “Yes” vote means approving the recommended funding for projects that will help Minnesotans have more access to the Great Outdoors, provide clean drinking water, support water decontamination efforts, and celebrate the diverse history and people of Minnesota.

A “Yes” vote means adopting these policy changes to allow DNR to better protect and preserve Minnesota’s water, land, and natural resources for present and future generations.
