A lawsuit was filed against the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power on Monday, accusing the utility of failing to properly manage water supplies needed to fight the Palisades Fire.

Litigator Briana Strange tells “The Hill on NewsNation” that fire victims should “focus on obtaining the relief (available), because that’s money that already exists.” Strange says lawsuits are important, but attorneys should focus on helping residents now.
