TRUMP ISSUES EXECUTIVE ORDER ASSUMING CONTROL OF LOS ANGELES WILDFIRE REBUILD PERMITS FROM STATE, LOCAL JURISDICTION President Trump announced Tuesday that he's signed an executive order that effectively moves permitting authority from California and Los Angeles to the federal government as the region continues to rebuild after last year's devastating wildfires.

That authorization overrides permitting requirements that would normally fall under state and local jurisdictions.
