Congress recently introduced a bill to expand domestic biomass. The Wildfire Reduction Market Expansion Act of 2026 argues that harvesting more forest biomass can help solve the wildfire crisis. This argument is costly and wholly unproven. Cutting down forests doesn’t prevent wildfires. Logging actually makes wildfires worse. The bill could revitalize the struggling biomass industry. It expands what the federal government considers biomass. We must act fast.
