I don’t… think that’s how localized funding works? Like just because something receives federal funding doesn’t mean the mismanagement of funds isn’t happening on a local level. I’m not saying Trump is right about that being the case here (I’d have to look more into it or maybe some California followers have some insight), but it’s kind of nuts to say “the mismanagement must come from the top of the federal government.”
So maybe the federal government shouldn’t be involved at all…
Plus don’t forget the contribution of California’s eucalyptus trees to this issue.
