California is immensely grateful to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation staff and hand crews for their tireless work helping to put out the firestorms across the Los Angeles area.
Their involvement was crucial in the combined response of local, state, federal, and international teams.

I’m directing California's emergency management and wildfire suppression leaders to implement new strategies for better protecting Californians from future firestorms.

This is an act of total cowardice.
It is also how you prevent party infighting stories from becoming media firestorms, by not saying anything that can give them oxygen.

Q: One of your members just said Hegseth has gone overboard on the firings. Do you have any concerns?
MIKE JOHNSON: Well, I have enough to say grace over in the legislative branch. I don't really get involved in personnel decisions at the Pentagon. I don't have the bandwidth.

Deeply moved by the resilient spirit of Los Angeles, from Altadena to the Palisades, as families who lost everything keep pushing forward.
Grateful to Foothill Catalog and Habitat for Humanity for helping survivors rebuild. So much more to do, and we won't stop until the job is done.

Donald Trump promised almost a year ago that he'd "take care" of rebuilding after the Los Angeles firestorms, but survivors are still waiting for him to officially ask Congress for relief.
It's long past time for Trump to wake up and do his job.

California is providing more food benefits for people in Los Angeles impacted by the recent firestorms.
Starting February 10th, I encourage eligible people to apply for CalFresh benefits, which will allow more people to access and put more food on the table.

In January, Donald Trump looked me in the eye on the tarmac, promising Angelenos that he'd help rebuild after the firestorms.
11 months later, he still hasn't delivered.
That's why I'm headed to D.C. to push for a long-overdue federal aid package for survivors.

Just as Oregon supported our state during the Los Angeles firestorms, we’re supporting our Northern neighbors with strike teams and fire engines to aid in their wildfire response efforts.
I’m proud California can lend a helping hand to fellow Americans in their time of need.

One year ago today, horrific firestorms tore through Los Angeles County.
The blazes tragically took 31 lives, destroyed thousands of buildings and homes, and displaced families and local businesses.

Really captures what it means when emergency personnel and first responders said they were battling hurricane-force firestorms
Just got this video. The @lafd.bsky.social and @calfire.bsky.social had over 75 fire engines and pieces of equipment in place before the winds started and this is what they faced the first night. Just an insane situation to deal with and blaming it on anything other than nature is ridiculous.

Just spoke with President Trump about the urgent need for Congress to quickly pass federal aid to help our fellow Americans recover from the devastating firestorms in Southern California.
