Gov. Schwarzenegger Helps Fallen FF Families

 
On Wednesday, February 7 Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed SB 41 authored by Senator Jim Battin that enacts the California Fallen Firefighters Assistance Tax Clarification Act of 2006 in the wake of the five firefighters who died in the line of duty fighting the Esperanza fire last year. This bill will "help the families of the fallen firefighters by allowing them to receive charitable donations directly from tax exempt organizations without penalty".

While looking at the above press release I noticed a new website for fire information from the State of California here. It's nice to see such a professional website dedicated to fire news and information on ongoing incidents. Well done!
