A resolution designating May 2026 as "National Wildfire Preparedness Month".

National Wildfire Preparedness Month designates May 2026 to raise public awareness and promote actions that reduce wildfire ignitions, protect homes, and limit smoke-related health harms. The resolution highlights recent data on fires and acres burned, notes about 85 percent of wildland fires are human-caused, cites federal wildfire suppression costs over $3.0 billion per year, and urges federal, state, local, tribal, and community efforts to expand home hardening, vegetation and forest management, early warning systems, evacuation planning including animals, and limits on combustibles during high-risk periods.
