Manchin, Bipartisan Colleagues Introduce Legislation to Promote Active Forest and Rangeland Management to Restore Ecosystems and Sequester Carbon

Press Release

"From the devastating wildfires in Hawaii to the dense smoke that covered the east coast, people across the country are seeing what folks in Wyoming have long known -- out of control wildfires are dangerous and destructive. Through critical initiatives such as revegetation, tree thinning in overcrowded forests, and the elimination of invasive fire-prone grasses, America's Revegetation and Carbon Sequestration Act will help improve the health of forests and rangelands, and make them more resilient to catastrophic wildfires. Simply put, the ARCs Act will help ensure the responsible management of our forests and rangelands in Wyoming and across the country. I am thankful for Chairman Manchin's partnership on this important legislation."
