You could be forgiven for not reading the entirety of the GOP’s massive One Big Bill for Billionaires that Trump just signed into law. Yet right at the beginning of the table of contents is “Subtitle B — Forestry,” which might give the impression that the GOP is serious about investing in wildfire prevention and forest restoration. Instead, the new law strips critical funding that had been appropriated to the National Forest System under the Inflation Reduction Act. Contrary to Trump’s stated goal of preventing wildfires, two sections within the Big Billionaire Bill will, in fact, exacerbate the risk of fires across the US. …Trump’s plan is simple, but the pieces of the puzzle are spread across different bills, laws, agency processes, and executive orders to obfuscate the overall intent: Cut the funding to protect the forests, open the areas for development, and then eliminate the environmental reviews.
