president, for coming and visiting california. and on behalf of fresno county who i'm speaking for today, i want to thank you for your visit. beginning on september 4, our creek fire started and it impacted not only the residents but utility infrastructure that services california. pres. trump: that's right. that's right. that's a big problem, isn't it? how is that going? >> we got the largest utility in the united states, pg&e out of bankruptcy in record time with firm commitments to make sure they never walk back down that path. pres. trump: that's a lot of utilities burning up though. >> our fire right now is over 200,000 acres. and it's really more than any single local government can take care of. so we are asking for assistance. we've already made some progress today by getting hold of fema, i made a request for pete to have a representative right in our command post. we're making that happen so that's going to be very valuable for us. not only has it impacted our woodland but the families who lived there for generations in

here in the state of california. a commitment i have made very publicly the last few days. the course of many, many years, many different capacities including my capacity as a former mayor where we led the state in many categories. california leads the nation but we have more work to do and you will hear a series of announcements the next few weeks and months as we advance a cause that hold dear in the state of california and a rts it relate to no political the leadership in the state from governor brown to governor schwarzenegger. going back to governor reagan who established 1970, many of the tenants of california resources board and others that have become national models in environmental stewardship. we need to reconcile the fact there are no democratic thermometers and republican thermometers. there is fact and reality as well as observed evidence. it is not a belief system. it is an acknowledgment. the facts are the facts. it's not a question of one's belief. it is whether or not you will acknowledge the facts

primarily in california, oregon and washington. this is a record for most firefighters ever deployed. to bolster our capabilities, we requested assistance from the active military as well as our international partners. additionally states have requested assistance from their national guards. preventing the spread of covid among our first responders and communities is an important addition to our focus on safety this year. the forest service has been successful with implementing our covid prevention and mitigation measures by social distancing and mask wearing. i would conclude like recognizing the efforts of this committee that took to establish the congressional fire funding fix. as a result the forest service no longer must delay priority work that results from transfers of funding from other forest service programs to pay for ongoing fire operations. i welcome any questions you may have. >> thank you so much deputy chief phipps. thank you, again, for being here and thank you for being patient with us working around a voting sche

california's dropped. the numbers can be former edd director and labor attorney michael birbeck says california still has a lot of work today. >> today's numbers are really not consistent with all the other economic indicators we are seeing. in terms of the new yesterday. california was way above those of the national rate in terms of consumer spending. way down in the bay area compared to other parts of the nation. in terms of job postings, here in california, way below what we had in january and below the other parts of the nation. >> he points to urban areas in the cities of oakland and san francisco are like ghost town stamp him. he is encouraged by recent openings process, those are very restrictive and limited. it took six to seven years to recover from the great recession in 2008 and 2009 and he believes this recovery can even be longer. >> this downturn in 2020 is far far more severe than that of the great recession. and, it would seem that we don't have precise numbers yet. the number is closures.

this is here in the state of california. i reminded people after a very tough wildfire season last year, with the kincade fire in northern california, as stressful as it was, the fire near the reagan library itself, last year, it generated a lots of international headlines and it was a relatively mild wildfire season in contrast to the last decade. you can see that in this slide, just those two first bars. 3.4 million acres. 3.37 millionburned so far in this calendar year. last year and the entire calendar just 277,000 acres. i don't mean just, because that is a substantial number of acres that were burned by wildfires but in comparison to this year, it is modest in size. 2018, you will see the third bar . once .975 million acres burned. 85 lives were lost, that was one of the most destructive and devastating from a structural perspective matches the acreage perspective. gives you a sense of the challenge that we are facing and the challenges that we will face moving into the future and it will requires to be more flexible.

the president in california. we will hear what he has to say, but mike memoli in delaware there, our eyes and ears on the campaign trail with joe biden. he is also set, this hour, in thefecti next hour, he is set t deliver remarks of his own on this subject. what can you tell us about what he's set to say? >> reporter: you'll have to settle for my voice for now as we await the former vice president. he just left his home a short drive away. we expect him to arrive in the next ten minutes with his remarks to follow. and with 50 days until election day, obviously this has not been a normal campaign by any standard. but we are seeing the biden campaign doing what you would do typically in a campaign, which is trying to be nimble, add to the schedule in light of this crises. this is one of the four crises you'll remember that joe biden said the nation was facing during his democratic convention acceptance speech. the climate crises. it's not one that he's spent a lot of time on recently, as he's focused on the other

of oregon and california's delegation. they delivered a message of climate change towards the president. he entered her and said the following, "this is one of the biggest burns we've ever seen and we have to do a lot about forest management. obviously forest management and california is very important and now it extends into washington and oregon." as that meeting continues the president stopping to thank those who have risked their own lives to save the lives and property of so many others. the fires have been unrelenting. they continue today. there is no indication on what point they will be under control in a significant way. these men and women have accomplished their mission, but as we watch this president in nevada over the weekend, a race that is very tight in that state. after this visit, sacramento, he will go to arizona after for an event. it appears the polling and arizona and nevada, although there has not been a lot of polling and either state, there is a smattering here or there. electorally that is somethin

tomorrow the president is heading to california. what are your hopes about what he'll see, what he'll witness, what perhaps he'll hear from first responders or perhaps everyone residents? >> look. i'd like to think we were in a world where he would see the firsthand evidence with his own eyes and understand the need for congress and washington, d.c. to take action. but i don't think that's going to happen. we have seen this administration throughout its time in office has tried to roll back regulations and standards to protect human health and mitigates the effects of climate change so i don't they change now but if we were in that world and he is paying attention to the evidence what he would see is a very compelling basis for taking action now to reduce this carbon pollution we put into the atmosphere and making the wildfires and other extreme weather events so much more damaging. >> thank you for being with us this sunday. >> thank you. >>> meanwhile, several communities in southern louisiana are under mandatory evacuation orders

to california to go be with her mother when she was so ill. unfortunately, her mother passed away before lou arrived in california. as i mentioned, she was very close to her father and was struggling how to help him in this time of grieving after his wife had passed away. she concocted a story about going across country. i quote from one of the letters lou wrote to one of her friends. "he needs change very much, and yet it is of course no humor to get benefit from a train journey and none whatever from a conventional visit. we wanted a california cadillac in washington and i always wanted to travel across. i told him i was going to do that now. of course, he is coming along so i will not have to be alone. also, a wonderful filipino boy devoted to him who can drive a car, cook or do any other chores. we will likely not reach washington until the middle of october, perhaps much later. as the weather favors us and we are led by wind for a sightseeing delay." this trip went from september 12 to october 16. it was lou, her father, a nephew , and ma
