USDA commits to logging public forests regardless of environmental damage

Secretarial Memo would make logging dominant on over a hundred million acres, taking next step towards dismantling Forest Service

Today, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins issued a Secretarial Memo to expedite logging on over a hundred million acres of Forest Service lands.

The “emergency” memo follows President Trump’s reckless Executive Order “Immediate Expansion of American Timber Production” and misguided attempts in Congress to solve the wildfire crisis with the reckless logging bill “Fix Our Forests Act”.

100 million acres is about the size of Rhode Island.

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance).

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
