mcclintock. mr. mcclintock: i thank the gentleman for yielding. i want to begin by thanking congressman westerman for organizing this special order tonight and for his work on the natural resources committee and its subcommittee on federal lands and mr. westerman is schooled at yale university, which the founder of the u.s. forest service, did so much to shape. mr. westerman's h.r. 2647 represents the first step towards restoring the sound, well established, scientifically validated and time-tested methods that for generations produced vibrant forests. these forest management practices prevent vegetabletation and wildlife from overgrowing the land to support them. not only did this assure robust d healthy forests capable of resisting disease but supported an economy. the timber provided steady stream of receive news to the treasury which could be used to further improve the public lands. but about 45 years ago, we replaced these sound management practices with what can only be described as a policy of benign neglect. in 1970, congress adopted the

mcclintock, for five minutes. mr. speaker, i rise to express my deep disappointment in the decision by the house leadership to back off from the direct vote on a resolution of disapproval of the iran nuclear accord as provided under the corker act. clearly the president has not complied with the requirements of corker to provide congress with the full text of its agreement with iran, most specifically the side deals referenced in the agreement between iran and the iaea. house resolution 411 that declares the administration out of compliance with the corker act is well-founded, but there is no reason to cancel the vote on the resolution disapproving the agreement, as specified in the corker act and as promised by the house leadership for the last six weeks. house resolution 411 rightly disputes september 17 as the deadline for congressional action to stop this treaty from taking effect, and i support that resolution, but it cannot authoritatively settle this dispute. that leaves the deadline as an open question, and th

for northern california, and the valley fires have been significant, affecting both congressman mcclintock and congressman thompson's district. congressman thompson has lost over 600 homes and threatening thousands more and he's stayed there to protect his district and assist with the fires. at this point the valley fire is only 30% contained. the butte fire has taken 233 homes. as a result of these devastating conditions, these two fires sadly, two firefighters have lost their lives, and three civilians have been killed. four fires have been taken and hospitalized due to severe burns. we literally have thousands and thousands of men and women that are out there manning these fires. so the question is, what should we do about it? as these numbers sadly continue to rise. well, we need to better manage our forests. we need to help alleviate and cut down on the fuel that is there through the brush that has made these fires incredibly spread in conditions that we had never foretold in the past. wildfire suppression and bert managing our forests is a key to doing this. the funding that we provi

mcclintock, for five minutes. thank you, mr. speaker. in 48 hours the house will vote on a resolution to stop the iran nuclear treaty. i know the president chooses not to call it a treaty, but it is a treaty in everything but name. with international ramifications as great as any treaty congress has ever considered. because treaties have a profound implication to the life of this nation, the constitution requires they be ratified by a 2/3 vote of the senate. yet this this post constitutional era of obama's america, they now require 2/3 of both houses to reject them. every republican in both houses has taken a stand against this treaty, so rejection or ratification now rests solely on whether enough democrats are willing to place country ahead of party on a matter of the gravest consequence to world peace. i don't think anyone can dispute the immediate effects of this treaty. $150 billion in frozen assets will be released to a regime whose leaders daily reiterate their intention to wage war on israel and the united states. these funds wil
