A resolution recognizing that climate change is making wildfires more frequent, more intense, and more destructive.

SRES 559 is a non-binding Senate resolution recognizing that climate change is increasing wildfire frequency, intensity, and destruction. It cites scientific evidence - including NASA data linking human-caused climate change to longer fire seasons, U.S. Forest Service reports on extended fire periods, and the $424 billion annual cost of wildfires - to affirm this connection. The resolution specifically references the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires as an example of climate-driven impacts. It formally acknowledges the need for full federal funding and staffing of wildfire prevention and response efforts, though it does not create new laws or mandates.
