    Thanks for posting this (and thank you Rep. Grijalva).

    The vote to consider passed along party lines with all 5 Democratic amendments, including Grijalva’s, failing.

    Final vote expected tomorrow.

    Here’s President Obama’s statement about the “National Strategic and Critical Minerals Production Act of 2012″(heh):

    Oops. Final vote today, HR 4402 passed.

    Legislation like this would be fast-tracked by a Republican Senate and Administration…I shudder to think of the disastrous implications to our natural resources and public lands.
