Schiff calls Mike Johnson ‘shameless’ for withholding aid to California

Published January 26, 2025 3:17pm ET



Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) shamed House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) for teasing the idea of only providing aid to California with conditions, while “Americans are hurting right now.”

As of Sunday, three fires in Los Angeles have yet to be 100% contained. In the meantime, a fourth fire erupted in San Diego County Thursday and is only 10% contained. Johnson went on the record to say he won’t “commit” to giving the state the aid it needs with no strings attached “because we have a serious problem in California.”
