Original Note:
While the current budget in California cut 100m from the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection budget went up from $2 billion in 2018-19 to $3.8 billion in 2024-25 and headcount went from 5,829 to 10,741. Citing a small decline after a double is misleading. https://www.newsweek.com/gavin-newsom-cut-100m-fire-prevention-budget-before-california-fires-2012980
