Newsom’s Wildfire Liability Push | Los Angeles News

Governor Newsom is racing to pass a last-minute bill that would cap utility liability for wildfire damage, arguing it’s essential to prevent bankruptcies that could leave victims uncompensated. But critics—including insurers, fire survivors, and attorneys—are rallying against it, warning it shifts costs onto homeowners and insurance companies while shortchanging those who’ve lost everything. With just weeks left in session, lawmakers are divided, and survivors are demanding transparency and fairness as California braces for the financial fallout of escalating wildfires.
