Legislative Progress

Review
Senate
House
President

Key Points

  • Congress would require the Government Accountability Office to study what helps or blocks wildfire prevention work across property lines.
  • The study looks at federal programs and rules that affect projects that need cooperation between federal agencies, states, tribes, and local governments.
  • It also examines whether changing certain rules could make it easier to get funding for wildfire prevention and mitigation work.
  • The report must be sent to Congress within 2 years after the bill becomes law, with recommendations to simplify cross-boundary projects.
