President Biden and Vice President Harris received a briefing on the ongoing efforts to combat the devastating wildfires in California. President Biden pledged additional federal support but cautioned there's still work to be done before the threat has passed.

A top adviser to President Joe Biden says the deadly wildfires in the Los Angeles area are the latest sign of the growing threat posed by climate change — one that President-elect Donald Trump will have to take more seriously than he did in his first term.

President Biden gave remarks Thursday about the wildfires raging in the Los Angeles region that have killed at least five people, forced thousands to evacuate and caused irrevocable damage to homes and neighborhoods across California.
