"In Bipartisan Vote, House Approves Forestry Bill Opposed By Biden" [1]

"In a bipartisan vote, the House approved a forestry bill opposed by the Biden administration.

The vote was 268-151. Fifty-five Democrats voted with Republicans in favor of the bill.

The legislation seeks to exempt projects like cutting down trees in an effort to prevent wildfires from environmental reviews.

Proponents of the bill say it will help fight wildfires and improve forest management."
