Senator Adam Schiff of California has called for an independent commission to review the response to the wildfires in his state after residents in unaffected areas received evacuation alerts.
Senator Schiff said, “I’m deeply concerned about these erroneous alerts, these erroneous evacuation alerts that have gone out.”
The senator continued, “If people can’t trust when they’re told you need to get out, that they do need to get out, then it not only severely impacts the whole effort, but people ignore the alerts, endangering themselves and endangering the firefighters that have to step between the fires and these civilians.”
He said the independent commission should review the lack of water in the Palisades and issues with water pressure in Altadena
