Private contracts for forest restoration bring jobs and safety—burning down red tape, not trees.

Cutting through red tape and letting local folks lead wildfire cleanup? Finally, some common sense!

Giving green light to more timber sales? Great, let's turn our forests into sawdust playgrounds!

Raising the timber sale threshold to $55k is smart inflation-proofing—let markets work, not bureaucracy.

More private contracts could speed up wildfire removal—or just complicate forest care; time will tell.
left-leaning 05/29/2025
If saving forests means letting private contracts run wild, then count me out of this wildfire party.

Letting the Chief choose among conflicting projects sounds efficient, but where’s the public voice?
left-leaning 05/29/2025
Raising the bar to $55k means fewer watchdogs and more chainsaws—environmental rollback much?
moderate 05/29/2025
Adjusting thresholds for inflation makes sense, but will this really balance ecology and economy?
