Gavin Newsom Has No Credibility on Forest Management
Tyler O'Neil | January 09, 2025
As wildfires engulf Los Angeles, California’s Democrat governor, Gavin Newsom, is facing renewed scrutiny for his record on forest management.
As of Thursday morning, multiple wildfires, including the Palisades Fire and Eaton Fire, are raging across Southern California, leaving at least five dead and burning more than 27,000 acres, Fox News reported.
Amid the conflagrations, the governor’s official website released a list of actions the Golden State has taken to prevent wildfires, but his credibility on the issue leaves much to be desired.

“Gov. Newsom has dramatically ramped up state work to increase wildland and forest resilience, as well as adding unprecedented resources to support wildfire response,” the website states. “California officials treated more than 700,000 acres of land for wildfire resilience in 2023, and prescribed fires more than doubled between 2021 and 2023″ (emphasis original).
