Local News reports:
California wants 40 Billion dollars in federal aid for wildfire recovery.
Governor Gavin Newsom sent a letter to house speaker Mike Johnson and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries making the request for federal aid.
Former president Joe Biden promised the federal government would cover the first 100 days of fire recovery in Los Angeles.
But – President Donald Trump has suggested federal aid could come on the condition the state change it’s environmental management policies.
Recent Wildfires around LA burned more than 16 thousand structures and killed at least 29 people.
If I was Trump, I’d offer the aid under the pretense that California stops funding illegal immigrants. What do you think?
