An update from Senator Jennifer Fielder
One of my major goals as a legislator is to find ways to ensure responsible management and access to our natural resources on the federally managed lands in Montana. We have the science and ability to strike a balance between protecting the environment, reducing catastrophic fire hazards, and harvesting renewable resources from the land. Achieving that balance will require a great deal of focus, but many something different needs to be done, and it will be well worth the effort.
