*Time to Manage our
Forests and Stop Allowing Fringe Groups to Win in Court*

Last Tuesday, I chaired a forest management roundtable with *U.S.
Forest Service Chief Vicki Christiansen*, *Department of the Interior
Assistant Secretary Susan Combs* and *Wyoming County Commissioner Joel
Bousman*.
We focused on the devastating impact frivolous litigation
has on forest management projects, specifically how the Ninth Circuit
Court's *Cottonwood *decision is being used by fringe environmental
groups to block forest management projects *without benefit to
conservation or species protections. *
Today, there are approximately *nine
active lawsuits in Montana threatening important forest management
projects.* Even worse... RY Timber in Townsend just shut down largely due to
litigation.
These radical environmentalists are *killing jobs all
across Montana*, and that's why I'm fighting to bring *commonsense
forest management *back to Montana.
I'll soon be introducing bipartisan
forestry legislation to address the Cottonwood decision and help us
better manage our forests from deadly wildfires.
