In a letter responding to the Wall Street Journal editorial, “Trump and Bernie, Political Smokejumpers,” Senator Curtis argued that while the editorial correctly identifies American forest management failures, it overlooks the bipartisan legislative solutions already moving through Congress, including the Senator’s Fix Our Forests Act and Wildfire Emissions Prevention Act.

Senator Curtis, along with Senators Lee and Crapo, today introduced a resolution commemorating the arrival of the first company of Latter-day Saint pioneers into the Salt Lake Valley on July 24, 1847. In remarks delivered on the Senate floor, Curtis highlighted how the virtues demonstrated by early Latter-day Saint pioneers—including faith, sacrifice, resilience, and community—are universal American aspirations and essential to addressing the nation’s modern challenges.

Senators Curtis and Kelly introduced the Promoting Access to Transit in High-Growth Communities Act, bipartisan legislation to modernize how the federal government evaluates transit projects seeking funding through the Federal Transit Administration’s Capital Investment Grants program. Companion legislation was introduced in the House by Representatives Owens, Kennedy, Titus, and Stanton.
