Welcome to Jobs for Minnesotans!

We’re a coalition of organizations united and committed to advancing one common goal: job creation and investment in Minnesota through the growth of responsible industries. Co-founded by the Minnesota Building and Construction Trades Council and the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, Jobs for Minnesotans brings together organizations that represent Minnesota businesses, labor organizations and communities across the state.

Through this coalition, our members show support for opportunities to grow industries that will revitalize and strengthen Minnesota’s economy in both rural and urban areas. Today, our focus is on the sustainable development of new mining projects.

Combining the state’s rich heritage in natural resources with modern technology and workforce expertise, mining and other industrial projects can significantly increase jobs and economic development for the state while protecting Minnesota’s water and great outdoors.

We stand behind the strict environmental regulations Minnesota has in place, but also support a change in permitting processes, which are currently deterring investment. We can achieve both high environmental standards and project advancement through more timely and transparent permitting.

Be a part of attracting billions of dollars of new investment in industries committed to meeting Minnesota’s environmental standards. Get involved today and show your support for job creation and investment here.
