So the amendment was rejected. The result of the vote was announced as above recorded. The Acting CHAIR (Mr. Clay). There being no further amendments, under the rule, the Committee rises. Accordingly, the Committee rose; and the Speaker pro tempore (Mr. Cuellar) having assumed the chair, Mr. Clay, Acting Chair of the Committee of the Whole House on the state of the union, reported that that Committee, having had under consideration the bill (H.R. 2546) to designate certain lands in the State of Colorado as components of the National Wilderness Preservation System, and for other purposes, and, pursuant to House Resolution 844, reported the bill, as amended by that resolution, back to the House with sundry further amendments adopted in the Committee of the Whole. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under the rule, the previous question is ordered. Is a separate vote demanded on any further amendment reported from the Committee of the Whole? If not, the Chair will put them en gros. The amendments were agreed to. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the engrossment and third reading of the bill. The bill was ordered to be engrossed and read a third time, and was read the third time. Motion to Recommit Mr. McCLINTOCK. Mr. Speaker, I have a motion to recommit at the desk. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentleman opposed to the bill? Mr. McCLINTOCK. Yes, in its current form. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to recommit. The Clerk read as follows: Mr. McClintock moves to recommit the bill H.R. 2546 to the Committee on Natural Resources with instructions to report the same back to the House forthwith with the following amendment: Page 234, after line 21, insert the following (and redesignate subsequent provisions accordingly): TITLE VII--PROTECTING LIFE, PROPERTY, AND THE ENVIRONMENT FROM WILDFIRE SEC. 701. PROTECTING LIFE, PROPERTY, AND THE ENVIRONMENT FROM WILDFIRE. In addition to any other authority provided in this Act, mechanical wildfire mitigation shall be allowed in wilderness areas designated under this Act to protect life, property, or the environment. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from California is recognized for 5 minutes in support of his motion. Mr. McCLINTOCK. Mr. Speaker, the question presented in this amendment comes down to this: Are we willing to protect our wilderness areas from catastrophic wildfire or are we content to stand by and watch them burn? The Wilderness Act of 1964 designates lands, ``for the use and enjoyment of the American people in such manner as will leave them unimpaired for future use and enjoyment as wilderness.'' Now, that is important because nothing impairs the future use and enjoyment of our wilderness areas more than catastrophic fire. Our pledge in the Wilderness Act is to, ``provide for the protection of these areas.'' To provide for the protection of these areas. Look at America's wilderness areas today, it is heartbreaking. We have utterly failed to protect them from the scourge of wildfire that is now consuming them. An untended forest is no different than an untended garden. It will grow and grow until it chokes itself to death, and as it becomes morbidly overgrown, it falls victim to disease, pestilence, drought, and ultimately catastrophic wildfire that incinerates everything in its path. Once a forest is cremated, scrub brush takes over, and the forest won't regrow for a century or more, denying multiple generations of Americans the use and enjoyment that the Wilderness Act promises. And then the process of destruction will begin again. Why? Because we have made it all but impossible for forest managers to protect these habitats by removing excess timber before it can choke off the forest. Without special permitting, land managers are restricted to handsaws and axes, which consigns our wilderness forests to a policy of benign neglect even as they die before our eyes and await the inevitable wildfire. And even when the conflagration is ravaging the forest, permission to use mechanized equipment to fight the fires in wilderness areas is often difficult and time consuming. Today's Panetta amendment does nothing to change this dangerous situation. The 2019 Decker fire in Colorado began in the Sangre de Cristo wilderness where benign neglect had already decimated the forest. Eighty percent of the trees had already perished in the overcrowded conditions that made them vulnerable to pestilence and [[Page H1111]] drought. And when the fire came, firefighters were held back due to the wilderness designation until the fire literally exploded. The same tale is told over and over again throughout our national lands. There are currently 111 million acres of Federal land designated as wilderness. That is about the size of California. This bill would add 1.5 million more. That is the size of Delaware and half of Rhode Island combined, much of it in areas where the Federal land managers are warning us that it is not suitable for wilderness designation and it is opposed by local governments because of the proximity to towns, homes, and property. My amendment simply allows for mechanized wildfire mitigation; that is, something more than handsaws and axes for the express and sole purpose of protecting life, property, or the environment in these newly created wilderness areas under this bill. This isn't a new policy. There are 29 instances where similar active management activities are already written into specific wilderness designations. This amendment would be the 30th time we have done so. When Republicans were in the majority, we set three objectives for our Federal lands: To restore public access to them; to restore good management to them; and to restore the Federal Government as a good neighbor to the communities directly impacted by them. This bill reverses those objectives set by House Republicans. Instead of restoring public access to public lands, the Democrats would restrict it. Instead of restoring good management to the public lands, the Democrats interfere with it. And instead of restoring the Federal Government as a good neighbor to those communities impacted by the public lands, the Democrats give those communities the finger. But mark these words: If these wilderness restrictions are imposed on acreage near people's homes, it is only a matter of time until the forest succumbs to neglect and the inevitable cycle of overcrowding, death, and fire. In the aftermath, people will have the right to ask why their elected representatives refused to protect them, their families, their homes and their forests when they had the chance to do so today to allow our Nation's foresters to do their jobs and care for this precious resource. At this moment my Democratic colleagues, remember, only you can prevent forest fires. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. Ms. DeGETTE. Mr. Speaker, I claim the time in opposition to the motion to recommit. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from Colorado is recognized for 5 minutes. Ms. DeGETTE. Mr. Speaker, this motion to recommit may sound innocuous, but it truly is a wolf in sheep's clothing, and let me tell you why. Our local agencies already have the ability to fight fires if they need to in wilderness areas. There is no provision in the Wilderness Act that says they can only use axes or nonmechanical items, none. They keep saying this all day, and I don't know why. It is simply not true. What this amendment would do is it would give some amorphous entity the ability to use mechanical means whenever they thought necessary, potentially usurping the right of local governments. And also, as the gentleman from California (Mr. McClintock) pointed out, the local areas, the management teams, already had the ability to fight fires how they wanted. And what is more, in the underlying bill, we say that. But just to make clear, just about everybody in this Chamber just voted for the Panetta amendment, which underscores that we can fight fires in wilderness. But let's talk about what this bill really is about. Let's talk about it, because it is so important for our children and our grandchildren, the future generations. Today, we have a bipartisan ability to preserve these special wild areas. It is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to preserve 1.4 million acres of wilderness across the West for our generations to come. It will stimulate the economies of our States; it will encourage recreation; it will encourage conservation; and it will take us a long way to our goal of preserving 30 percent of public lands by 2030 to start slowing down the changing of our climate. P.S., if we slow down the climate change, we slow down the forest fires, and everybody in this Chamber knows that. Look at the charts that we have of the areas in this bill. I want to show everybody these gorgeous areas: This first chart, one of the 35 areas in my Colorado Wilderness Act, the Dolores Canyon River; The second chart, the Middle Fork Eel Wild and Scenic River in Mr. Huffman's Northwest California Wilderness, Recreation, and Working Forest Act; The third chart, Dry Lakes Ridge in Mr. Carbajal's Central Coast Heritage Protection Act. And, by the way, Mr. Speaker, you can see here where they had a fire, and you can see here what happened when that area remediated itself from the fire: beautiful wildflowers. The San Gabriel National Recreation Area waterways in Ms. Chu's act, you can see the beautiful areas that are protected there. The Rim of the Valley in Mr. Schiff's Rim of the Valley Corridor Preservation Act. These were sent to him by his constituents, who love these areas. And the Skokomish River in Mr. Kilmer's Wild Olympics Wilderness and Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. Folks, this is what we are talking about. This is the legacy we are leaving our children. The Wilderness Act of 1964 says: Wilderness should be preserved as an area where the Earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain. That is what we are talking about today. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to reject this motion to recommit and vote ``yes'' on this important groundbreaking bill. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is ordered on the motion to recommit. There was no objection. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit. The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the noes appeared to have it. Mr. McCLINTOCK. Mr. Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore.
