Newly elected California Governor @GavinNewsom responds to @realDonaldTrump tweet about cutting funding for wildfire relief.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Disasters and recovery are no time for politics. I’m already taking action to modernize and manage our forests and emergency responses.

The people of CA -- folks in Paradise -- should not be victims to partisan bickering.

@realDonaldTrump states he has ordered FEMA to stop sending money to California for wildfire relief due to improper forest management.

[Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump]

Billions of dollars are sent to the State of California for Forest fires that, with proper Forest Management, would never happen. Unless they get their act together, which is unlikely, I have ordered FEMA to send no more money. It is a disgraceful situation in lives & money!
