Republicans Put Party Over Country in Disaster Aid Debate
The piece argues the Trump administration refused a $7.4 billion disaster request after Northern California wildfires, with California Republicans largely absent from the aid push. It contrasts relief responses to Puerto Rico and notes GOP lawmakers' partisanship, including a near-total California delegation boycott, while warning of broader political costs. It references Sen. Bernie Sanders, Rep. Ed Royce, and California votes, and critiques GOP tax plans affecting California and the Northeast.
