The bill directs the GAO to study how well federal programs and rules support wildfire prevention work that crosses boundaries between federal and non-federal land. It also asks GAO to examine a 2003 Healthy Forests Restoration Act provision to see if it helped agencies and states get more wildfire mitigation funding. GAO must report findings and recommendations to relevant House and Senate committees within two years.
Affects federal land agencies like the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management, the Department of Agriculture, FEMA, and state, local, and tribal governments involved in wildfire prevention.
Wildfires cross property lines, but funding rules and agency authorities are organized by land ownership type, which can complicate coordinated prevention work; the bill itself changes no laws or funding.

Right now: it passed the Senate, and the official record shows nothing new since. If the House changes it, it goes back to the Senate before reaching the President.
