Wildfire Emergency Act of 2025

The Wildfire Emergency Act of 2025 creates a comprehensive approach to wildfire management through three main components. It establishes a pilot program using conservation finance agreements to fund landscape-scale forest restoration projects on National Forest System lands, prioritizing projects of 100,000 acres or more. The bill also creates programs to improve energy resilience for critical facilities through microgrids, requires fire-resistant materials in weatherization programs, and funds research centers for prescribed fire training and workforce development. Additionally, it provides grants to disadvantaged communities for land stewardship and wildfire resilience activities, with a focus on enhancing community capacity and equitable access to environmental resources.
