"President Biden on Thursday said the federal government will fully cover the costs of the disaster response to the wildfires raging across Los Angeles County.
The federal government will cover the costs for 180 days, he said.
“That's going to pay for things like debris and hazard material removal, temporary shelters, first responders salaries, and all of the safety measures to protect life and property,” he said. ”I want to underscore, I told the governor and local officials: spare no expense. And we're doing literally everything we can at the federal level."
Biden also announced that Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has authorized 500 wildfire ground-clearing personnel from the Defense Department to assist local crews."
