## Resource

In White Salmon, Washington, a decades-long forest thinning project races against time to shield the town from devastating wildfires, but its survival hinges on a high-stakes legal and political tug-of-war over federal funding. While the state and local officials rally behind the effort — crucial after recent catastrophic fires — federal grant money has been frozen due to conflicting executive orders and state anti-discrimination laws, delaying millions in wildfire defense funds. A recent court victory temporarily unlocked some funds, but looming federal regulations threaten to reignite the legal battle, leaving residents anxious as the physical work continues — and their safety uncertain.
