Highs and Lows: Fix Our Forests Act

Hello, Utah! I’ve got a special ‘highs and lows’ for you this week.

You’ll see in the video linked below, I’ve joined Senator Hickenlooper (D-CO) to share a major high that we’re celebrating: introducing the Fix Our Forests Act with Senators Sheehy (R-MT) and Padilla (D-CA). Our bill addresses the serious wildfire risks that we’re seeing across all of the American West. From 2023 to 2024, wildfires in Utah doubled—and across the country, they’ve increased even more than that. So, introducing this comprehensive, bipartisan legislation is a real high for us. Because Utah and Colorado are neighboring states, I’m sure we will be joining forces to solve more problems facing the West and our country.
