Description

Governor Bob Ferguson has signed a sweeping proclamation to fast-track recovery for wildfire victims, waiving document fees, speeding up unemployment access, and pausing evictions for two weeks—targeting neighborhoods like Old Trails, Autumn Lane, and Fairview. Meanwhile, Spokane firefighters are delivering care packages on the ground as communities brace for months—or even years—of rebuilding. With nearly 900 homes destroyed, the state is now preparing a Major Disaster Relief Request to unlock federal aid, focusing on getting help to those starting from scratch, one day at a time.
