Trump approves Newsom’s emergency funding request after Orange County chemical incident
Gavin Newsom’s (D) response to a toxic chemical leak that was at risk of exploding in northern Orange County. Newsom secured the federal assistance to assist the more than 785 state and local first responders at the site of the GKN Aerospace Transparency Systems facility in Garden Grove, located south of Los Angeles. The request’s approval will allow the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to provide support to those state and local first responders, including special equipment and other “life-saving response activities,” Newsom’s office said in a post on the social platform X.
