Wildfires recently ravaged Los Angeles, claiming dozens of lives and destroying thousands of homes.
One week later, the city and state’s response is under intense scrutiny. Local leaders face criticism for their absence when the fires broke out, the lack of water resources for firefighters, and budget cuts to the fire department.
