Gov. Newsom asks Congress for nearly $40 billion for wildfire relief
Gov. Gavin Newsom is asking Congress to approve nearly $40 billion in aid to help Los Angeles recover from January's wildfires.
$17B to rebuild property and infrastructure
$5B for debris clean up
$10B for grants to homeowners and businesses$5B for homeowner and business loans
$4B for "recovery grants"
$2B low-income housing tax credits.
To understand the magnitude of this HUGE request, each line item was divided by the 16,250 structures destroyed by the as-yet-unexplained fires.
$1M to rebuild property and infrastructure
$300k for debris clean up
$615k for grants to homeowners and businesses
$308k for homeowner and business loans
$246k for "recovery grants"
That adds up to $2.5M per household!
I would have FEMA work directly with the homeowners/insurance companies bypassing the State entirely. They have proven they do not know how to manage projects (tasks, schedule and budgets).
He and all his democrats caused the damage, and now he wants the rest of America to pay for it...As long as he and his kind are in power it will happen again and again and again.
