Gov. Newsom requests $39 billion in federal aid from Congress following Los Angeles area wildfires

Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday penned a letter to Congress, outlining how California would use billions in federal aid for Los Angeles area wildfire disaster relief. 

The governor requested more than $39.6 billion to "directly support" communities in both immediate and long-term recovery.

  1. I think that the Federal government would be wise to skip the California government and set up a system where individual home & business owners deal directly with the Federal government. We all know that if the money is given to California, less than 50% will find it's way to the afflicted and the rest will go to corruption.

  7. If California didn't support illegal aliens, they would have the money to take care of business. But California administration is full of crooks. Fuck California.

  8. No Federal dollars should to to ANY entity that refuses to enforce federal law. Therefore, ZERO dollars to the state of California, ZERO dollars to LA County, LA City, California Courts, etc.

  9. Sure, as soon as they pay back all the federal money they wasted on high speed rail. With interest.

    1. The amount that Gavie is asking for fire recovery is more than ten times the amount that FedGuv has already wasted on the Go-Fast Choo-Choo.

      Then there are the billions of unemployment dollars that CA still owes FedGuv, money the state got scammed out of because of sheer incompetence and stupidity.

      California is nothing but a financial pig that Newsom can't put enough lipstick on.

  13. Seems like we should take care of them in the order they occurred. So West NC is first. Oh, and no spending on illegals, or we cut all federal funding. While we’re at it, we’ll administer it, not you, because, well, we don’t trust you at all. Sound good?

  14. Wants a bail-out for the entire state, for a problem that happened due to their own policies.
