Tell the Environmental Protection Agency to save the jobs of the many veterans who work near Bristol Bay by stopping a pair of foreign companies with Koch brother connections from digging a mine in the area.
Why is this important?
Every summer, hundreds of veterans head to Bristol Bay, Alaska to earn a living as commercial fishermen.
It's not easy work and it separates them from their families -- again -- but in this tough economy it pays well and takes care of things back home.
Unfortunately, two foreign mining companies with connections to the Koch Brothers are trying to dig a mine near the Bay that would destroy these jobs and lay waste to the environment.
Because of our unique voice as veterans and military-family members, we were asked to take action on this issue. It was a no-brainer.
