Speaker Mike Johnson suggests ‘conditions’ needed on disaster aid for LA wildfires

Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson suggested that any aid for California’s wildfire relief should have conditions, signaling a potential political conflict.

Johnson criticized state leadership, particularly Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom, for issues like water and forest management, which he claimed contributed to the devastation.

He hinted at a possible tie between debt limit increases and aid to California, though he emphasized that discussions are ongoing.

This stance could lead to partisan debates in Congress, as additional disaster relief is usually approved with minimal conditions and bipartisan support, ABC News has reported.
