Kim Kardashian demands higher pay for firefighters battling Los Angeles wildfire

Model-actress Kim Kardashian recently expressed her gratitude towards firefighters who have risked their lives to save people from the ongoing wildfires in the Southwestern state of the US, California. She even demanded higher pay for them. She took to her Instagram Stories and penned a note claiming incarcerated firefighters have been paid one US dollar since 1984, and informing that their pay have never been raised with inflation.

Kardashian then asked California Gov. Gavin Newsom to raise pay for incarcerated firefighters so it's "a rate that



honors a human being risking their life to save our lives and homes. And lastly I want to thank the firefighters from the @calfire Ventura Training Center for saving my community when it started burning this week. These are all FORMERLY incarcerated firefighters who have come home, and want to continue serving our community as firefighters. Due to bills passed by @antirecidivismcoalition, these guys can now get their sentences reduced, expunging the felonies from their records for their fire service. And when they come home can get six figure jobs working for the fire departments."
