"I am concerned that the frequency and intensity of these fires is a result of forests that have not been adequately managed."

"The health of our National Forests is an issue of vital importance for rural America."

"I'm very concerned that the Forest Service's attempts to revise the viability section of the new rule will lead to endless legal wrangling, not more responsible forest management."

"I want to be certain that our National Forests are managed so that they are good neighbors with adjoining state and private forests and do not pose an unnecessary fire threat."
