Minnesota’s Superior National Forest received a $10 million grant in 2024 to cover wildfire prevention efforts, then DOGE came along and delayed funding. Now, parts of that area are burning. “Could those firefighters have been doing something else? Could that fire have been stopped in less acres?” says Aaron Kania, a former wildland firefighter in Minnesota. The outcomes “would’ve been better had that work been done before the fires.” MS NOW: My Source for News, Opinion, and the World. » Subscribe to MS NOW: https://www.youtube.com/@msnow » Subscribe to MS NOW’s We the People Newsletter for exclusive content from your favorite MS NOW anchors.
