That doesn't seem to stop or slow down the Trump administration. They're threatening all of that. They fired over 3,400 U.S. forest Service employees. 3,400. They fired another 2,300 workers from the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife, Bureau of Indian Affairs. There might be even another one. I mean, these are cuts that we're going to feel. And these are the folks who are being fired who are responsible for wildfire mitigation, for timber management, for all kinds of things.
