Mr. Speaker, H.R. 4838, introduced by the gentleman from Oregon (Mr. Walden), would authorize the Secretary of the Interior and Agriculture to enter into contracts with nonprofit youth conservation corps to carry out land management initiatives relating to the Healthy Forest Restoration Act. This legislation was originally included in the Healthy Forest Restoration Act, but was removed during negotiations. This bill shares bipartisan support and will allow youth conservation corps to perform service projects related to forest health, restoration, and community protection from wildfire. I urge adoption of the bill.
