Restoring healthy ecosystems and combating invasive species is also an important step in reducing the risk of catastrophic wildfires. The $1.4 billion investment through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law in ecosystem restoration and resilience is a historic step forward.
.@POTUS’ Bipartisan Infrastructure Law invests $1.4 billion in ecosystem restoration and resilience.
These investments benefit species up and down the food chain, restore our nations lands and waters and further the America the Beautiful Initiative.
