Oak Flat is one of our religious places where our Gaan – spiritual deities and Holy People – reside. Apache people have lived, prayed, and died in the Oak Flat Area since time immemorial. We are saddened that Congress, through an 11th hour rider, has ignored the will of the people. We are concerned for our children who may never see or practice their religion in their rightful place of worship. We are worried for the children of southeast Arizona who may have to find new places to live to drink clean water...However, the Apache people will not remain silent. We are committed to shining light on the Land Exchange and the proposed mine until we have no breath. —Terry Rambler, San Carlos Apache Tribe
