This bipartisan bill authorizes Good Neighbor agreements up to 20 years, providing greater certainty for long term coordination and encouraging the sustained investments needed to increase the pace and scale of forest management. My home state of Wisconsin has long been a leader using Good Neighbor and is carrying out projects that harvest roughly 30 million board feet every year. The revenue generated from these projects is used to improve the health and resiliency of Wisconsin's forests and watersheds. This bill will further empower Wisconsin and other state, tribal and county partners nationwide to do more of this important work. (01:10–01:20)
