This resolution supports naming 2026 the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists to honor the ranchers and ecosystems that provide food and protect our environment.AI-written
Formally recognizes 2026 as a year to celebrate the economic and environmental importance of U.S. grasslands and the ranchers who manage them to produce food and prevent wildfires.
While this is a symbolic resolution, it matters because it brings national attention to the economic and environmental value of rangelands. These areas produce more than half of the nation's sheep and cattle, meaning they are vital for food security. Furthermore, the resolution highlights how professional grazing management can reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfires by up to 60 percent. If this passes, it signals to federal agencies and the public that maintaining these ecosystems is a national priority for both the economy and disaster prevention.
