Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : While it is putting Tongass off-limits to development, the Biden administration is expected to announce $25 million in federal spending on local sustainable development in Alaska, designed to support projects to improve the health of the forest, according to the person briefed on the matter.
22% : The forest was heavily logged in the 1960s and 1970s but in 2001 President Bill Clinton enacted the "roadless rule" that blocked road construction necessary for logging and mining in much of the forest.
