Federal House Speaker Mike Johnson, who is pro-Trump, said the state and local authorities in California will have to have preconditions for supporting the L.A. bushfire because they are negligent in their duties.
However, he added, "It's a personal view," and "We'll see how the consensus is formed."
In response, Representative Jared Moskowitz, a Democrat, criticized Democrats for "taking control of the House, Democrats will condition their support for Florida and Texas, which are strong Republican areas."
As the wildfire-hit state is a strong Democratic region, Trump and Republicans are focusing their offensive on the failure of California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a member of the Democratic Party's next presidential candidate group, and others to respond.
