Proven Forest Management Act Passes House Natural Resources Committee

June 13, 2023

Washington, D.C. – The Proven Forest Management Act, H.R. 188, has passed the House Natural Resources Committee and will next go to the House Floor.

H.R. 188 expands throughout the entire National Forest System the categorical exclusion for forest management projects that was secured for the Tahoe Basin in the 2016 WINN Act.

"Excess timber comes out of the forest in only two ways – it is either carried out or it burns out. For most of the 20th Century, we carried it out," McClintock said.

The Default Prevention Act: Guarantees the Debt of the U.S. Will Always Be Paid in Full and on Time

March 9, 2023

Speeches

I want to thank the Ways and Means Committee for taking up my HR 187, the Default Prevention Act. Similar bills I have introduced passed the House in 2013 and 2015, and I am gratified the Committee would take it up in this session. The bill simply provides that even if there is a fiscal impasse in our deliberations over the debt limit, the debt of the United States will always be paid in full and on time.
