Save Our Hunter-Gatherer Ways. Help us protect Thacker Pass – Peehee mu’huh
We, members of the Fort McDermitt Paiute-Shoshone Tribe and our native and non-native allies, demand that the Department of the Interior rescind the Thacker Pass Lithium Mine Project Final Environmental Impact Statement, Record of Decision, and Plan of Operations. Despite the harm this mine will cause to the Fort McDermitt Paiute-Shoshone Tribe, ancestral burial sites, water, air, and wildlife like greater sage grouse, pronghorn antelope, and sacred golden eagles, the Bureau of Land Management approved the mine on January 15, 2021 without adequately consulting our Tribe.
