Victories in Disaster Relief and Recovery

I watched my daughter fight to get benefits for her children after her husband passed away less than a year ago and he didn't die in a natural disaster. The long wait after death to file, the extra paperwork, the grief going on while trying to jump through all the hoops they want you too, is absolutely absurd! Then you wait for them to make a decision and wait some more for benefits to bury them. Our system is so flawed this law is really needed. I back it fully.

I have followed this story since hurricane Helene hit and the loved ones messaged that Alena had not been found. Loss is hard and add to natural disaster as hurricane Helene and it’s effects. Please review and consider Alena’s law to help free up laws that will help her bereaved family get the financial support and closure needed. B

Alena was my cousin and I think that it’s wrong to make families wait 7 years before declaring someone dead especially after a natural disaster because families can’t move forward and begin the process of so many things

As somebody who struggles with mental health issues, the concept of a police officer refusing to try to understand when somebody is going through something is utterly terrifying, especially when taking into account how stigmatized certain disorders are.

I am a resident of Pacific Palisades. The Palisades is not ready to be opened to the general public. For now, it should ONLY be opened for residents. We still don't have power to our homes yet. Opening it up to the general public will be a big mistake as there is nothing to do for the general public to do besides take photos of the devastation or loot. PLEASE keep Pacific Palisades closed to the general public.

I no longer live in the Palisades, but over the mountains in Topanga. I welcome PCH opening so I can get my kids to school. However it's outrageous to open the Palisades now. Officials have spent weeks telling us it's unsafe, has toxic waste, potentially explosive materials. And residents have no way to secure what little is left. Terrible terrible decision. She must have financial incentive to open it. It's certainly not in the residents interest

Please keep the residence requirements and pass system. We’ve only been allowed access to our area since Monday. My home is ashes, but there are a few homes in my area that miraculously survived, only to now be unnecessarily exposed again.

We went to our property the day after and saw people looting our park. Our government and park owners prevented actually homeowners going to their homes but looters had free reign.

My mom has resided on the ABC streets since 1969. The area remains unsafe. It has barely been a week since residents were even allowed back in. Residents, especially those that are older need time to process and try to recover anything that might remain in the ashes. Residents and family members requested to help residents should be the only people allowed access until phase 2 debris removal. This is an overwhelming and devastating time. Please provide this respect.
