JUST IN: President Trump says he is signing an emergency order to "free up forests" for more lumber production in the United States.
An influx of new, cheap lumber will drastically reduce the cost of new housing construction. LET'S GO!
"We're freeing up our forests. We're going to be able to take down trees right now. We're so restricted environmentally... We have more forests than almost anybody. We don't need anybody's trees. We don't need trees from Canada or anybody else."
This is how we'll actually solve the housing affordability crisis, NOT by sending government subsidies to anyone.
May we never forget.

PLEASE MARK YOUR CALENDARS! THE 2023 ASSOCIATED CALIFORNIA LOGGERS ANNUAL MEETING MOVES TO THE PEPPERMILL RESORT SPA CASINO IN RENO; TUESDAY JANUARY 17 THROUGH THURSDAY JANUARY 19, 2023
Endor might be a lot closer than a galaxy far, far away — it was filmed in California’s Redwood National and State Parks! The park contains almost 39,000 acres of coast redwood, some of the tallest and oldest trees on Earth. Happy #StarWarsDay, may the forest be with you!
Did you know that forest management in the U.S. and Canada operates under federal, state, provincial and local regulations to protect water quality, wildlife habitat, soil and other natural resources. In the U.S., more forest land is lost to development, than forestry 🌳
People talking about #forests, #forestry, and being #forestproud…or maybe just hanging out after a good first day of our conference.
Day 1 in the books!
