Don't think so--did you watch the video? It definitely was taped at a Home Depot in Oakland
Yeah, instead of putting lines underground we just shut them off... Thanks Jerry Brown for that. smh

Litigation has its impact.

You willing to pay more taxes for that?
They had a bill that overwhelmingly passed both house/senate and your bro Jerry vetoed it. There was 3 or 4 billion set aside for improving the grid, including getting lines underground so they wouldn't burn down a whole 
ing city. Now PG&E has claimed bankruptcy and has 30+billion in law suits for letting a whole city burn down. TTKU

3 or 4 billion would be a drop in the bucket to getting lines underground across the state.They had a bill that overwhelmingly passed both house/senate and your bro Jerry vetoed it.

But in Arkansas they are proud to be hawgs.
It would've been a start to get the worst fire areas out of danger and maybe saved lives. But you keep on, keeping on.
CA Gov. Jerry Brown Vetoed 2016 Wildfire Management Bill While CA Burned
What many do not know, is that California Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed a bipartisan wildfire management bill in 2016, despite unanimous passage by the Legislature, 75-0 in the Assembly and 39-0 in the Senate. SB 1463 would have given local governments more say in fire-prevention efforts through the Public Utilities Commission proceeding making maps of fire hazard areas around utility lines. In a gross display of politics, this is especially pertinent given that Cal Fire and the state’s media are now blaming the largest utility in the state for the latest wildfires.
California politics at its best!

PG&E is now actively mitigating fire hazards around power lines. I wonder why?

Is there no veto override in Cali?
There has been no veto override since 1979. Not sure a mostly democratic Congress would want to override a Democratic governor. Just more politics as usual.
California politics doesn't give a crap about people. They let three homeless people die a day and they let entire cities burn down, killing many more. Yet, "they" claim/blame Republicans for being insensitive, and non-caring.
They are beholden to the environmentalists that won't let them clear land that you're supposed to to prevent forest fires. The carbon footprint that these fires cause should make their heads spin. But they can't see the forest through the trees.

Want more homeless? Let's try rent control to create more of them!
Yeah, because it's a housing issue, not a mental health issue. Good Lord. Funny how illegal immigrants pour into California and don't have a problem finding housing, go figure...
