WASHINGTON, Aug. 2 -- Rep. Paul A. Gosar, R-Arizona, issued the following statement on U.S. District Judge James Soto's ruling halting the planned Rosemont Mine:
"The Rosemont Mine would be the third largest copper mine in the United States, an industry critical to Arizona's economy.
"This ruling, from an Obama-appointed judge, undermines the scientifically-based decision made by the Forest Service at the behest of radical environmentalists.
