Beyond the Bench: S2 Ep2, Travis Joseph

In our newest episode, we sit down with Travis Joseph, President and CEO of the American Forest Resource Council, to unpack the laws and policies shaping the future of forests in the American West. We discuss the legacy of the Northwest Forest Plan, the legal mandate behind the Oregon and California Railroad and Coos Bay Wagon Road Grant Lands Act, and the growing controversy over monument designations under the Antiquities Act, including the expansion of Cascade–Siskiyou National Monument. We also look ahead to what Congress is considering now, from provisions in H.R. 1 to the proposed Fix Our Forests Act and broader efforts to reform federal permitting. If you care about wildfire, public lands, and the future of rural communities in the West, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
