00:00And we want you to be back in your homes immediately.
00:03But the people are willing to clean out their own debris.
00:05It doesn't cost a lot.
00:06Yes, and they can.
00:07You should let them do it because by the time you hire contractors, it's gonna be two years.
00:12If a family-
00:14People are willing to get, you have to exercise them also.
00:16I did exercise them.
00:18Because I looked, I mean, you have a very powerful emergency power.
00:21And you can do everything within 24 hours.
00:24Yes, and if individuals want to clear out their property, they can.
00:28We protect those who will come afterwards.
00:31As we speak, there are 6,000 acres burning in my district on the Mexican border.
00:36But we are gonna move as fast as we can.
00:40But we want you to be safe.
00:42We want you to be back in your homes immediately.
00:45But the people are willing to clean out their own debris.
00:47It doesn't cost a lot.
00:48Yes, and they can.
00:49You should let them do it because by the time you hire contractors, it's gonna be two years.
00:54If a family-
00:56People are willing to get a dumpster and do it themselves and clean it out.
01:01And they can do that.
01:02There's not that much left.
01:03It's all incinerated.
01:04That's right.
01:05And it's just gonna take a long time if you do.
01:08You can do some of it.
01:09But a lot of these people, I know that guy right there that's talking.
01:12I know my people.
01:13You'll be on that thing tonight, throwing the stuff away.
01:16And your site will be, it'll look perfect within 24 hours.
01:19And that's what he wants to do.
01:20He doesn't wanna wait around for seven months till the city hires some demolition contract.
01:25That's gonna charge him $25,000 to do his lot.
01:29I think you have to, you have emergency powers just like I do.
01:33And I'm exercising my emergency powers.
01:36You have to exercise them also.
01:38I did exercise them.
01:39Because I looked, I mean, you have a very powerful emergency power.
01:42And you can do everything within 24 hours.
01:45Yes, and if individuals want to clear out their property, they can.
01:49Yes, but you know that you will be able to go back soon.
01:57Mr. President.
01:58We think within a week.
02:02That's a long time, a week.
02:04I'll be honest.
02:04To me, everyone's standing in front of the house.
02:07They wanna go to work and they're not allowed to do it.
02:09And the most important thing is for people to be safe.
02:13They're safe, they're safe.
02:14You know what they're not safe?
02:15They're not safe now.
02:17They're gonna be much safer.
02:20A week is actually a long time the way I look at it.
02:23I watched hundreds of people standing in front of their lots.
02:27And they're not allowed to go in.
02:29It's all burned.
02:30It's gone.
02:31It's done.
02:32Nothing's gonna happen to it.
02:33It's not gonna burn anymore.
02:34There's nothing to burn.
02:34There's almost nothing to burn.
02:36And they wanna go in there.
02:38The people are all over the place.
02:39They're standing.
02:40And I say, Warren, you're going in.
02:42We're trying to get a permit.
02:43And the permit's gonna take them.
02:45Everybody said 18 months.
02:47You said 18 months.
02:48You said 18 months.
02:49That was last night.
02:53And that was last night.
02:54On that.
02:59Right.
03:02Yesterday.
03:03Mr. President, we're gonna be together next week.
03:07And during the interim, many of us are involved in,
03:11and Tom McClintock, who you know, has been an expert on this for years.
03:15We are going to be putting conditions on the money that do two things.
03:20Require that it be done timely and affordable.
03:23And then secondly, that we protect those who will come afterwards.
03:28As we speak, there are 6,000 acres burning in my district on the Mexican border.
03:33There will be more fires until we include, in any disaster relief,
03:40items which will prevent it or at least mitigate it from happening again.
03:44You're gonna see us proposing both of those.
03:48Like water.
03:50Little things like water.
03:51You know, the party of common sense.
03:53See, Brad, we're the party of common sense.
03:55You're not, in all fairness.
03:57Yes, sir.
03:58We like water to put out fires.
03:59It's really quite efficient.
04:01All right.
04:02Thank you, Mr. President.
04:03Don't miss out.
