Wake up and Smell the Smoke
This was a special-order debate in the House under the title ‘Wake up and Smell the Smoke,’ focused on wildfires. Representative Bruce Westerman said the House had passed the Fix Our Forests Act on a bipartisan vote 18 months earlier, that the Senate Agriculture Committee had advanced it on a bipartisan vote, and he called on the Senate to pass the bill and send it to the President. He described wildfires burning across the country and said the bill would help prevent fires in high-risk forests and provide more support for firefighters and their families.Written by AI from the debate.
