In January the @ushouseofreps.bsky.social passed the #fixourforests act, establishing requirements for managing forests on federal land. As of yesterday 2000 Forest service employees were fired. Someone give Gym Jordan a rake!

Oppose the So-Called “Fix Our Forests Act” | Cascadia Wildlands

I’m glad to see members of Congress working together on the bipartisan #FixOurForests bill. Wildfires are getting worse, and they hurt Republican and Democratic areas alike. Send your Senator a message to encourage them to support this bipartisan bill: cclusa.org/fofa. #climatechange
