Latest action on S. 2033: Held at the desk.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects the agencies and governments that plan wildfire prevention work across different types of land. It could matter most in places where federal land sits next to towns, Tribal land, state land, or private property. The bill does not directly give people new services or money. Its main effect is to guide future decisions by Congress.

Why this matters: Wildfire prevention can break down when one project must cross several types of land. Different owners and governments may face different rules, budgets, and approval steps. This bill would give Congress a clearer view of those barriers. Any real program changes would depend on later action after the report.

Key provisions in S. 2033

• The Government Accountability Office must study federal wildfire prevention programs, rules, and legal powers. The study focuses on work that crosses land ownership lines.
• The study must cover federal land and non-federal land. That includes projects that move from one type of landowner to another.
• The study must ask whether current programs or legal powers should change. It must look at capacity and funding access for federal land agencies, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the U.S. Fire Administration, and state, local, and Tribal governments.
• The study must review wildfire work allowed by section 103(e) of the Healthy Forests Restoration Act of 2003. It must look for ways to make that work better at reducing wildfire risk.
• The study must check whether that part of the Healthy Forests Restoration Act has helped federal land agencies and states get more money for wildfire prevention.
