Senators Manchin and Barrasso introduced a bipartisan bill to improve forest restoration and reduce the use of hazardous fuels by the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management. The bill would require federal agencies to double the number of acres thinned mechanically by 2025, and quadruple that by 2027.
