CAL FIRE has an excellent resource for those of you who live anywhere near a wildfire likely area. Or an area where idiots will host gender reveal parties with by lighting off fireworks in dry brush (it’s a boy, by the way … and congratulations to that new kid whose parents will most likely be arrested, sued, and in debt for quite a while for the stupid act that sparked the El Dorado Fire in San Bernardino County. They should name the kid “Smokey” or “We’re Really Sorry”).

As if 2020 hasn’t given us enough gut-punches already, California is now entering wildfire season – a season that brings increasing danger and more and more property damage and loss of life every year thanks to the incompetence of California’s government and the environmental stupidity that idiotic groups like the Sierra Club call “activism.” Environmentalism is why our wildfires are getting more and more intense every year.
The Great American Outdoors Act signed by President Trump is the gift that just keeps on giving! Thank you again, President Trump for your actions, and thank you Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation for all of your hard work fighting to get this to President Trump’s desk. American sportsmen owe you a debt that cannot be repaid.
Wasting NO time now that the Great American Outdoors Act has been signed by President Trump, Interior Secretary David Bernhardt has created the a coordination and implementation task force to reconnoiter the National Park System, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Indian Affairs, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service lands and create a road map to “effectively, expeditiously, and successfully “ determine a priority punch list of projects that will maximize the billions of dollars set aside through the Great American Outdoors Act for tackling the backlog of repairs that have built up over the years of neglect from prior presidential administrations. They’ve been given two months to come up with a strategy to do this, per the Secretary’s Order (you can read it HERE).
Yesterday President Trump signed the Great American Outdoors Act, on of the greatest conservation Acts signed in decades by any President.
Today Secretary of the Interior David Bernhardt announced free entrance to national parks and public lands for August 5, 2020 (short notice, but if you’re near a park, GO!). He also permanently designated August 4th as “Great American Outdoors Day” – an annual free entrance day that celebrates President Trump’s signing of this landmark legislation.
