When asked about Trump’s recent attacks against California, Newsom said,  “There’s not phone call that I have made to the President where he hasn’t quickly responded. He may make statements publicly, but the working relationship privately is an effective one.”

A Presidential Major Disaster Declaration would provide more funds for California. It would also allow the state to be more flexible in responding to the wildfires and providing help for the victims of the disaster.

California will use the Fire Management Assistance Grants from FEMA to support its response to the different wildfires in Santa Clara, Stanislaus, Santa Cruz, San Mateo Napa, Nevada, Lake, Solano, Yolo and Monterey counties.
