Press Release

Date: May 16, 2023
Location: Washington, DC

"In the last 5 years, we have lost over 38 million acres of land to wildfire -- a total area that is nearly as large as my home state of Wisconsin. If Congress does not act quickly, 2023 could produce yet another devastating wildfire year. That's why the Federal Lands Subcommittee understands that active forest management must be restored to protect property, firefighters, and communities across the West."
