Save Our Forests Act of 2025

This bill directs the U.S. Forest Service to quickly add staff to care for national forests and keep projects moving. It also tells the agency to bring back any workers who were let go between January 20 and February 25, 2025. The goal is to protect forest health, reduce wildfire risks, and keep services like trail upkeep and recreation sites running smoothly, using funds that are already approved .

It also lets the Forest Service keep working on projects already funded by laws like the Great American Outdoors Act, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act, so repairs, access improvements, and conservation work don’t stall .

• Who is affected: Forest Service employees, visitors to national forests, and nearby communities .
• What changes: Faster hiring to fill needed jobs; reinstatement of certain workers; continued funding for approved forest projects and maintenance .
• When: As soon as practical after the bill becomes law; reinstatement applies to workers separated between Jan 20 and Feb 25, 2025 .
