WASHINGTON, D.C. – On July 4, U.S. Senator Maria Cantwell (D-WA) issued the following statement on the Tunnel Five Fire in Skamania County:

“I am closely monitoring the Tunnel Five Fire and I am working to deliver federal resources, including firefighting equipment and personnel, that will help fire fighters and emergency responders on the front line have the resources needed to respond to this dangerous fire. I will also be working with the Forest Service and other federal agencies to provide any assets needed to tackle this fire and to help impacted communities rebuild. Washington faces greater risk this wildfire season, and I will continue to work with federal agencies and state, local, and Tribal governments to ensure that fires are attacked quickly and wildland fire crews have the gear they need to fight fires this season."
