What’s happening with Forest Service Accountability Act?
H.R. 1762 remains in the Subcommittee on Forestry and Horticulture as of March 27, 2025. The House Committee on Agriculture must hold a vote to advance the bill, but most legislation fails because committees do not take action. This effort faces a high risk of stalling because the vast majority of bills never receive a committee vote.
