BLM proposes illegal takings with new budget proposal, DON'T FALL FOR IT! Options

[CP]

From Mining.com Lots of new fees for hardrock miners in BLM budget

Watch out folks, this highly stupid current administration believes it can just take YOUR OWNERSHIP of our lands!
Write your reps soon and repeatedly if needed about this proposal. The BLM does not own the land nor do they have any "delegated authority" to claim such legally.
Just read it in this current proposed wording....."existing metal mining claims will not be affected, but they can volunteer to go on the "lease" system if they wish" Don't be fooled, who in their right mind would voluntarily give up their full "ownership" of minerals so they could then pay a royalty on extraction of the same?! WTF! Seems like a big NO brainer to me!

Write those reps and give em' the what fer'! This budget proposal is ludicrous! Much of it must be removed or kill the bill!

I've just updated the pinned thread in valuable reference today for easily finding and contacting your reps! Pass the word and the link!

You're very welcome Mike! and thanks for posting up the correction as well.

That's an important tid bit for everyone to know when learning about/understanding your rights to prospect/mine and which laws or regs are "applicable" or not.
