A group of Republicans has asked President Trump in a letter to implement “immediate, decisive action” ahead of wildfire season.
Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-Mont.) is leading the group of GOP lawmakers to request Trump take action as the May-to-November wildfire season begins, noting fires have already impacted communities and the environment across the country. The letter, signed by Sheehy and 16 other Republicans, was first reported by Semafor.
“We write to express our strong support for executive action your Administration is considering to mitigate the escalating wildfire crisis threatening our nation,” the letter began.
