Senator Tim Sheehy: After The Horrific Fires In California, We Need To Fix The Wildfire System To Support All Americans And Address Pay Issues For Our Firefighters.

On Today’s Show:

With the tragedy of the Palisades and Eaton Fires in California over the last week, I sat down with Senator Tim Sheehy to discuss what needs to be done to ensure that this tragedy never happens again and make certain our wildland firefighters are supported.

The Senator and I have discussed these issues for years, and due to these devastating fires, National attention is entirely focused on them.

We discuss fixing firefighter pay, long-term aviation contracts, who will run the Forest Service, changes that need to be made to the wildfire system, and how that can now be accomplished in Congress. The time is now to make these changes.

Senator Sheehy is the only Red Carded member of Congress as a firefighter and founded the internationally available wildfire aviation company Bridger Aerospace in Montana.
