John,

It has been one year since the devastating wildfires in Southern California -- and recovery is far from complete. Most of our neighbors have yet to return home, while businesses, roads, and other infrastructure desperately need repair.

I joined KTLA5 to discuss my work in Congress to meet this moment:

I was proud to lead the California delegation in calling on President Trump to release the federal disaster relief we need to recover. This is above petty partisan politics, and I’m pushing hard for the relief our communities deserve.

I’m also introducing new legislation in Congress -- the Healthy Lungs for Heroes Act -- to create respiratory protection standards for the wildland firefighters who put everything on the line to protect us.

This is a key first step toward protecting our firefighters, and therefore our communities. But I need your support to help pass this legislation -- will you add your name to my petition to sound the alarm?
 
Add your name

Thank you,

George
