Governor Gavin Newsom has appealed to Congress for $39.7 billion to aid Los Angeles in recovering from a destructive January firestorm. He emphasizes that this disaster could result in historic economic losses exceeding $250 billion and detailed his plan for the funding to aid in rebuilding homes, infrastructure, and community facilities. Newsom underscores the city's economic significance and commitment to responsible fund usage, with substantial requests directed towards FEMA, housing, and business supports.
"Los Angeles is one of the most economically productive places on the globe, but it can only rebound and flourish with support from the federal government as it recovers from this unprecedented disaster."
"Make no mistake, Los Angeles will use this money wisely."
