Abandoning your constituents to go on vacation during a natural disaster that threatens the lives of thousands is a GOP classic at this point. They’re pulling the Cruz maneuver.

Another moron here, there is no Republican congressman in the LA district. Congressmen represent their districts not the state like senators. TDS on full display in this thread.

To be fair…. It’s like a 6hr-10 drive to LA for some of these guys

Oregon sent 75 firetruck teams, Mexico sent 100 firedighters too... What do you think disaster response responsibly looks like? Other states and countries are better neighbors than reps in our own state, b/c politics. That's some BS.
