2 Sep 10 · 13d ago · 1 article · 1 source · development 2 of 3

Congress moved forward on legislation that would accelerate forest management projects on public and tribal lands by streamlining environmental review and legal processes. The bill has passed the House with support from roughly half of Western Democrats and overwhelming Republican support, and now awaits a final Senate vote before the Jan. 3, 2027 deadline.

“Wildfires today are very different than wildfires from a generation ago. Oftentimes, they're irreversibly devastating ecosystems and watersheds.”
