The Good Samaritan Remediation of Abandoned Hardrock Mines Act of 2024 is up for passage in the U.S. House tomorrow. This bipartisan, bicameral bill will accelerate efforts to clean up abandoned mine lands which predate modern environmental laws and mining industry best practices. The bill is years in the making and needs to get across the finish line. Please encourage your member of Congress to support final passage. Many thanks to Congresswoman Celeste Maloy, the primary sponsor of the House bill. ALL members of Utah’s congressional delegation are sponsors or co-sponsors of this bill, which shows that Utah is leading the way on common sense legislation that supports the public, taxpayers, and industry.
