Ron Wyden actually said...

A short-term extension [of SRS] is not a long-term solution for these communities. We've got to get our people back to work in the woods, for example. We have got to increase the number of jobs in resource-dependent communities where there's federal lands and federal water.

Context

Wyden emphasizes the need for sustainable jobs in resource-dependent communities.
