The Wildfire Prevention act will increase the pace and the scale of forest treatments, improve data transparency as well as accountability. It will reduce wildfire hazards through mechanical thinning, prescribed fire utility line vegetation work hazard, tree removal, and grazing. It is essentially a tool for wildfire prevention, and it streamlines many current practices. The bill will also support our wildland firefighters so that we can put more boots on the ground during fire season. (01:10–01:21)
