Congress must approve government spending, including any additional federal aid that may be needed for Los Angeles County wildfire relief, by a March 14 deadline.

Rep. Judy Chu , who represents Altadena and neighboring Pasadena , said more federal money will be needed to rebuild the thousands of homes, schools and other buildings destroyed.

Chu : "Wildfires know no political party. This is the United States of America , and we help our citizens".

Altadena is a historic area of LA which became a haven for the region's Black community over the last few decades .

Some lawmakers and local residents have expressed fears of land developers preying on homeowners facing heavy rebuilding costs in the community.

Town Council Chair Victoria Knapp said this rich cultural legacy makes it especially in need of preservation that only sufficient government aid can provide.
