- Much of Newsom's $2.5B wildfire relief package still untouched, records show
Most of California's $2.5 billion wildfire relief package remains unused 16 months after its announcement, with funds primarily allocated to state agencies, firefighting departments, and law enforcement for tasks like road closures and security. Records show $14 million was also used for unrelated immigration enforcement demonstrations, and victims report limited awareness of the fund.
