President Trump 's administration is holding up money for wildfire mitigation projects funded by legislation championed by his Democratic predecessor.
The decision undermines Trump 's repeated insistence that communities need to clear combustible materials like fallen branches and undergrowth to guard against wildfires.
Lomakatsi Restoration Project, a forest management nonprofit, has stopped work on projects funding by Biden 's legislation.
There are also concerns about how Trump 's recent executive order on downsizing the federal workforce could affect seasonal wildland firefighters.

The attrition rate for firefighters at the U.S. Forest Service has been 45% over the past four years .
