⚠️ URGENT: The #PermissionToPollute Act (HR 3898/the PERMIT Act) is expected to come to a vote in the US House soon. This would gut the Clean Water Act and make it easier for polluters to contaminate rivers, lakes, wetlands, and drinking water sources.

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they called 'gitche gumee'
The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
When the skies of November turn gloomy
