One Year Later: Newsom Let California Burn, Harder Looked Away

One year ago, Californians watched in horror as the devastating Palisades Fire tore through Los Angeles communities, destroying homes, livelihoods, and lives.

Today, the message from Gavin Newsom and Josh Harder is clear: you’re on your own.

• 80% of fire California survivors remain displaced, forced to scrape by while waiting on a government that never shows up.
• Building permit waivers are still not approved, trapping families in limbo and driving costs through the roof.
• Californians are paying thousands out of pocket to clean toxic debris and fight insurance companies just to rebuild, while Newsom does nothing.

“Democrat Gavin Newsom and out of touch Democrat Josh Harder let their state burn. One year later, Californians are still paying the price. Californians won’t forget who abandoned them when it mattered.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
