A powerful new opinion piece in the The Sacramento Bee takes a hard look at proposed changes to California's wildfire laws—and who stands to benefit.

Written by Erwin Chemerinsky, Dean and Professor of Law at UC Berkeley School of Law, the piece examines proposals that could make it more difficult for wildfire survivors to recover for the full impact of their losses.

For Eaton Fire survivors who have already lost homes, livelihoods, stability, and so much more, the stakes are deeply personal.

The article also raises important questions about the role of utility-funded advocacy efforts and whether proposed changes would ultimately protect survivors—or the companies facing wildfire liability.

We encourage survivors, families, and members of the community to read the full piece and stay informed as this conversation continues in Sacramento.

Wildfire survivors deserve to have their voices—and their rights—protected.
