SACRAMENTO — On Tuesday, Speaker of the Assembly Robert Rivas issued the following statement:
“We will continue to tackle the difficult but critically important issue of wildfire reform. Sacramento shouldn’t settle when wildfire survivors lost everything. Over the past several weeks, we have spent hundreds of hours at the table with Californians from every side of this fight, and the verdict is clear: The proposal before us does not yet deliver the relief, accountability or meaningful reform that Californians deserve. So, we are going back to work — and we will not stop until we have done everything in our power to deliver real results. I thank every Assemblymember and Senator who has engaged in good faith on the Governor’s proposal. Now, let’s make the hard decisions and finish the job.”
