These developments include wildfire victims not getting paid; Wall Street hedge funds, attorneys and others profiteering off the proceedings; and state legislation that is designed more to benefit utility shareholders than wildfire survivors. Abrams, who is a participant in legal proceedings related to wildfire survivor compensation, takes us through a series of observations that provide great insight into the plight of wildfire survivors. Abrams is a tireless advocate for wildfire victims who has taken his message to the state Legislature in Sacramento.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/sQfvocj7jJV2QFbVL7mcn3Vexkqh6fjli-pOJIQ8GaI/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9hZjFm/MmM2ZDhlZjhmZjg2/YmEwOGNjOTc3ZTMw/ZTI3MC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
