A resolution observing the 1-year anniversary of the 2025 Southern California wildfires.

Key Points

• This resolution marks the one-year anniversary of the 2025 wildfires that hit Los Angeles and nearby areas. It honors the 31 people who died and the thousands of people who lost their homes or businesses.
• The fires burned about 60,000 acres and destroyed more than 16,000 buildings. Over 200,000 people had to leave their homes during the disaster, making it one of the most expensive natural disasters in U.S. history.
• The resolution thanks the 7,500 firefighters and emergency workers who came from across the country and even from Mexico and Canada to help. It also recognizes the hard work of volunteers who helped those in need.
• It states that the House of Representatives is still committed to helping these communities rebuild. While the fires happened a year ago, many people in places like the Pacific Palisades and Altadena are still working to fix their neighborhoods.
