As wildfires continue to burn across Los Angeles, Mayor Karen Bass and 
other local leaders have been in communication with members of the 
incoming administration, over a possible visit. 

When asked by reporters on Sunday, if she is worried about animosity from 
President-elect Donald Trump and his team, she said no. She confirmed that 
she has been in communication with several high-ranking members of Trump's 
team.

"I joined in the invitation to the incoming president to come to Los 
Angeles. I joined with the supervisor and the governor," Bass said. "Spoke 
directly with the incoming administration yesterday and it was a fine 
call."

Trump's team provided a positive response to his possible visit, although 
a date has not been confirmed yet, Bass said. 

On Friday, California Gov. Gavin Newsom sent a letter to Trump inviting 
him to California to join him in surveying the widespread damage of the 
deadly wildfires. This letter came after Trump blamed Newsom and other LA 
leaders for the natural disasters, claiming their policymaking decisions 
have worsened the crisis.
