Executive Order Restores Common Sense, Jobs, and National Security: Trump Unleashes American Timber
By Richard Luthmann
The Greatest President of our lifetimes has done it again.
With a stroke of his pen, President Donald J. Trump has unleashed the U.S. timber and lumber industry, slashing bureaucratic red tape, reducing housing costs, and ending America’s reliance on foreign lumber.
President Trump’s “Freeing Our Forests” executive order restores common sense forest management while delivering a massive economic boost to American industry.
“Our disastrous timber and lumber policies, a legacy of the previous administration, trigger wildfires and degrade our fish and wildlife habitat,” said Peter Navarro, senior counselor on trade and manufacturing.
“These outdated rules drive up construction and housing costs and impoverish America through massive trade deficits, as Canada, Germany, and Brazil flood our markets with cheap, subsidized lumber at the expense of American prosperity and national security. That stops today.”
Trump’s executive order directs federal agencies to reverse destructive policies and expedite domestic timber and lumber production. The plan tackles two major crises:
- Wildfires and poor land management – Clearing dead and overgrown trees reduces fire risks and protects fish and wildlife habitats.
- Soaring housing costs – Increasing domestic lumber supply will drive down prices, making homes more affordable for American families.
“This is a win-win for America—our environment, our economy, and our national security,” Trump declared.
TRUMP UNLEASHES AMERICAN TIMBER: NO MORE RELIANCE ON FOREIGN IMPORTS
Under past administrations, America was forced to import nearly 50% of its lumber—mainly from Canada, Germany, and Brazil.
This destroyed U.S. jobs and skyrocketed housing costs, making homeownership unattainable for millions of Americans.
Trump’s America First approach prioritizes U.S. production over foreign reliance. The Department of Commerce is investigating lumber imports to determine if foreign dumping harms national security.
“We have a recurring problem where bad actors flood our markets with cheap, subsidized lumber, driving American businesses into the ground,” a senior White House official said.
Trump’s investigation could lead to tariffs on foreign lumber, further strengthening domestic production and protecting American workers.
TRUMP UNLEASHES AMERICAN TIMBER: SAVING AMERICA’S FORESTS—AND AMERICAN HOMES
Trump’s plan doesn’t just boost the economy—it solves the wildfire crisis.
For decades, mismanagement of national forests led to out-of-control fires. In California alone, wildfires have destroyed thousands of homes in recent years.
“Trump’s order will dramatically increase our ability to prevent wildfires, protecting homes, wildlife, and the environment,” a White House official said.
Proper land management means:
- Clearing deadwood that fuels wildfires.
- Thinning forests to create fire-resistant landscapes.
- Revitalizing wildlife habitats for healthier ecosystems.
“This common sense approach has been ignored for too long,” Trump said. “We will fix it.”
TRUMP UNLEASHES AMERICAN TIMBER: HOME PRICES TO DROP
Lumber prices have driven up home construction costs by nearly 40% in the past five years.
Under Biden, government-imposed restrictions choked off timber supply, causing record-high housing prices and making homeownership impossible for working-class families.
Trump’s executive order slashes red tape, allowing increased timber production and driving home prices down.
“We’re going to build affordable homes again,” Trump declared. “We’re bringing back the American Dream!”
FIGHTING THE RADICAL LEFT’S WAR ON COMMON SENSE
Environmental extremists are already losing their minds over Trump’s decision.
Radical activists claim that harvesting trees harms the environment, even though responsible logging prevents wildfires and preserves forests.
“Trump’s order will unleash chainsaws and bulldozers on our federal forests,” cried Randi Spivak of the Center for Biological Diversity.
These are the same lunatics who think “climate change” is responsible for everything from wildfires to heart attacks.
The truth is that Trump’s plan will make our forests healthier, our homes cheaper, and our economy stronger.
“We’re bringing back common sense,” Navarro said. “This is how you manage an economy.”
THE NEW AMERICAN GOLDEN AGE: PROSPERITY THROUGH TRUMP LEADERSHIP
Once again, President Trump is delivering for the American people.
His America First approach will:
- Create thousands of new jobs in logging, construction, and manufacturing.
- Reduce housing costs by increasing domestic lumber supply.
- End reliance on foreign lumber imports and protect U.S. national security.
- Prevent devastating wildfires through better land management.
“We will cut the waste, destroy the corruption, and Make America Great Again,” President Trump declared.
America is winning again—and the best is yet to come.
