National standards for the samples of the National Senate for the response to the penetration on federal lands

The party legislation presented by Sens. Tim Sheehy (R-Mont.) And Andy Kim (DN.J) Create a standard of response at the country level of forest fires that affect public lands.

According to the draft law, the law of response and preparation for the fire in the forests, all forest fires in the lands run by the Ministry of Agriculture or lands run by the Ministry of Agriculture with a half -hour response standard.

In a statement, Shihi and Kim indicated that the National Fire Protection Association currently has a 5 -minute response standards of 20 -second -second -to -fire, which was credited with reducing civilian deaths by 70 percent. There is no such standard for forest fires.

“The lawful firefighters law will help the firefighting fires while they are small and significantly reduce the damage of catastrophic wild fires. Sheei, an air firefighter simultaneously in a statement that this law will save lives and prevent hundreds of billions of dollars in the damage of future property.

Kim said: “With the presence of New Jersies and people all over our country, which increases the destruction of forest fires due to climate change, the most aggressive response time can be a tool to save life for them and for the first respondents,” Kim said. “With this bill, we can expand the success of the standards of structure fires and put our best forward in protecting societies from threatening forest fires.”

Sheei, a high -level Trump, dismissed former Senator John Ter (de Mont), one of the last Democratic Party in a red country that voted in favor of Trump three times. However, since Shehi took office in January, he collaborated in 10 fire prevention bills.

The bill comes in the wake of forest fires that destroyed many Los Angeles at the beginning of 2025, in addition to the most modern fires that led to parts of South Carolina, central Texas and Georgia. The power line, which was also dropped, also started the first fire in New Jersey in early March, weeks before the garden extinguishing season usually starts.
