Catherine heenan host of inside bay area politics is here with more on that catherine yeah grant and soon as we did hear it again today of course governor newsome.

Newsome pointing out correctly most forest land in the state is federally owned still should our leaders be addressing both concepts more thoroughly Climate Change and Forest Management.
