On December 12, 2025, Acton connected a recent news story to her broader views on finding solutions. She wrote, “This story fits into my Rubik’s cube theory, which is that solutions exist – we just need to put all the pieces in place to find them. We needed a solution to address our dependence on China for rare earth minerals, and the minerals were found in Lehi/American Fork.” Her comments reflect ongoing national concerns regarding reliance on foreign sources for critical materials such as rare earth minerals.
Rare earth minerals are essential components in many high-tech products and renewable energy technologies. The United States has sought ways to reduce its dependence on imports from countries like China by developing domestic sources of these minerals.
