Mr. Speaker, I rise to express my frustration and outrage with the Trump administration's reckless cuts to our Forest Service. The workforce that takes care of our forests, harvests timber, and makes them resilient to wildfires is treasured in my State of Washington and, I would say, in the entire Western United States. Cuts to this workforce endanger my constituents, endanger millions of Americans, and put our forests at high risk of catastrophic wildfires. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from California (Mr. Whitesides).
