GOP leader critical of McKee, General Assembly for not taking action sooner to prevent wildfires | ABC6

As the wildfires in the western United States continue to rage on, a GOP leader is now placing blame on Governor Dan McKee and the General Assembly for not taking action sooner to prevent them. According to ABC6, House Minority Leader Blake Filippi criticized McKee and the state legislature for not enacting measures to thin forests and prevent fires from spreading quickly. Filippi also stated that the state should have been doing more to prepare for the inevitable spread of wildfires, given its proximity to other states that have already been hit hard by them. While some may argue that the blame should not be placed solely on the government, Filippi’s comments highlight the need for increased awareness and action when it comes to protecting our forests and natural resources. As the effects of climate change become more apparent, it is vital for all levels of government to work together to mitigate their impact and prevent further damage.
