This is a Senate resolution that officially recognizes the connection between climate change and the increasing wildfire problem in the United States. The resolution points to scientific evidence showing that climate change is making wildfires happen more often, burn more intensely, and spread over larger areas. It notes that fire seasons have nearly doubled in length—from four months to six or eight months—and that worldwide extreme wildfire activity has more than doubled over the past 20 years. The resolution highlights the real costs of this problem, including the devastating January 2025 Los Angeles wildfires that destroyed over 15,000 homes and businesses and killed dozens of people. The resolution also cites economic data showing that wildfires cost the United States over $424 billion annually, not even counting the human health impacts. By passing this resolution, the Senate is formally acknowledging that climate change is driving increased wildfire risk and calling for the federal government to fully fund and staff wildfire prevention and response programs to address this growing threat.
