Dear John,

I recently visited our first responders at the Incident Command Center, Emergency Operations Center and the local evacuation shelter. I was able to hear directly from these brave men and women about their courageous efforts to protect the communities in San Bernardino and surrounding areas.
I also recently received a briefing from the San Bernardino County Fire Department, the United States Forest Service (USFS) and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE). The devastating impact of these fires is being felt throughout the entire region, underscoring the need for unity and support within our community for our friends and neighbors who have been affected.
I strongly encourage everyone to prioritize safety and stay vigilant by following guidelines and announcements from local authorities. Below is a list of resources for both the Line Fire and Bridge Fire to help you and your loved ones stay safe and informed.
