Arnold, I remember when you backed the party that let people keep their own land instead of more state programs and red tape.
Good to see more prescribed burns and home-hardening funding; those steps move the needle faster than endless studies.
Good to see real progress on wildfire prevention and home-hardening programs. Those steps save lives and keep neighborhoods safer.
Prescribed burns are the one tool we actually control. Good to see California scaling them.
Fast-tracking those projects and making home-hardening cheaper. Smart move that actually protects people instead of just talking.
Good work expanding prescribed burns. Those projects are the right kind of government action.
Good to see those fire-prevention projects moving ahead.
Wildfire prevention at scale is exactly the kind of infrastructure thinking we need more of. Faster permitting plus home-hardening incentives actually moves the needle.
Good to see California finally moving on wildfire prevention before it’s too late again.
