Loggers say Roadless Rule repeal won't solve their biggest challenges

The Trump administration's move to lift restrictions on logging in national forests, often referred to as the Roadless Rule repeal, is aimed at opening up protected areas for road construction and timber harvesting. However, loggers argue that this won't tackle the real issues facing the industry, like declining demand and competition from cheaper imported timber. While the decision may breathe new life into logging operations, it falls short of addressing the broader economic and market challenges that loggers face, potentially leaving the industry's future still uncertain.
