https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ca...ii-with-utility-executives-as-wildfires-raged
There you go, California citizens, pay for those damn fires yourselves; and those expensive junkets too. :lol:A group of California lawmakers took a trip to Hawaii with utility companies last year as wildfires wreaked havoc in their state.
During the junket, representatives from utility companies discussed with lawmakers just how much responsibility they should bear for wildfires – even as Pacific Gas & Electric Co. (PG&E) could be on the hook for several billions of dollars in damages for fires it caused over the past few years.
The utility companies are pushing for a new state law that would raise electricity prices to offset costs incurred from wildfires, according to The New York Times.
