April 12, 2022

Congresswoman Kim Schrier and representatives from the Federal Office of Emergency Management (FEMA) met with fire chiefs and law enforcement in Kittitas County to discuss resources for wildfires.

Congresswoman Schrier discussed getting $750,000 in funds through a recent infrastructure bill to help the city of Roslyn with fire mitigation. This money will allow the city to have prescribed burns to burn underbrush.

'Protecting our infrastructure involves preventing these catastrophic wildfires,' Schrier said.”
