Well where is the Governor? I am sure Trump has sent in all the Federal assistance he can. They have had fores in Cali before.
Here’s a switch:
The head of California’s emergency services on Monday penned a letter to the U.S. Forest Service that raised to prospects that the state may stop protecting national forests during fires.
Emergency Services Director Mark Ghilarducci said the agency has stiffed local governments $18 million for fighting wildfires on federal lands last year. “I cannot continue to support the deployment of resources to protect federal land that ultimately may bankrupt our local governments,” Ghilarducci said in the letter sent Monday to Forest Service Chief Thomas Tidwell.
Some communities were just recently reimbursed for last summer’s Cedar Fire in Sequoia National Forest and several Northern California counties are still awaiting payments for other fires. (2016) Additionally, the Obama people found a loophole in the agreement they had with local firefighters since 1955 that says they don’t pay part time firemen. Nearly 1/3 of the California force is made up of volunteers.
So, here’s Trump cleaning up more of Obama’s corrupt treatment of the people, even in a state as liberal as this. I guess they do eat their own.
