McIntire-Stennis Act District of Columbia Equality Act

This legislative proposal, titled the "McIntire-Stennis Act District of Columbia Equality Act," seeks to amend the existing McIntire-Stennis Cooperative Forestry Act. Its primary purpose is to grant the District of Columbia equal treatment regarding the allocation of funds under this federal program. The bill achieves this by explicitly inserting "the District of Columbia" into the relevant section of the Act, thereby making it eligible for cooperative forestry funding. This amendment would allow the District of Columbia to access federal resources for forestry research, education, and extension activities, aligning its status with that of states and territories.
