Find out what Congressman Ken Calvert is working on for Riverside County and the people of the 41st Congressional District

Firefighters continue to make progress containing the devastating wildfires in Pacific Palisades and Altadena. I believe Californians are entitled to receive federal disaster assistance in the same manner as all Americans. In the immediate aftermath of the Los Angeles wildfires, California’s congressional delegation acted in a bipartisan manner to request federal disaster aid, which was approved. Disaster aid funding, which is administered by FEMA, was boosted by Congress last month and program resources are sufficient, for now.

It will take weeks and months to truly realize the costs of the devastation and resources necessary to rebuild. State and local leaders have already begun making policy changes to facilitate the recovery, so it should come as no surprise that some federal policy changes may be needed to expedite rebuilding as well as improve future wildfire prevention. Those kind of policies are not conditions on aid but rather tools to help our state take commonsense steps to build homes faster and protect residents from wildfires.

Riverside County Sheriffs Deputy Timothy Corlew, who was assigned to the Jurupa Valley Sheriff’s Station, was involved in a fatal on-duty traffic accident on January 8, 2025.
