As fires across our state continue to burn, I am doing everything I can to help our firefighting personnel and officials on the ground.
One day after the first fire started, I attended a briefing on the Tres Lagunas fire by Incident Commander John Pierson, and I have been in contact with local leaders in both communities to monitor the efforts being made on both fires.
I will continue to keep a close eye on the situation to make sure our officials and residents have the support they need, and here are a few resources to help stay informed and stay safe:
