Kim Kardashian is speaking out. On Saturday, Jan. 11, the reality star took to Instagram to show support for firefighters battling the Los Angeles wildfires, claiming that “hundreds” are incarcerated firefighters who deserve higher pay. “On all 5 fires in Los Angeles, there are hundreds of incarcerated firefighters, risking their lives to save us. They are on the Palisades fire and Eaton fire in Pasadena working 24 hour shifts. They get paid almost nothing, risk their lives, some have died, to prove to the community that they have changed and are now first responders. I see them as heroes,” the SKIMS founder said in part before sharing that their pay is $1 per hour and has allegedly been the same since 1984. The 44-year-old then called on California Gov. Gavin Newsom to raise their pay. “I am urging @cagovernor to do what no Governor has done in 4 decades, and raise the incarcerated firefighter pay to a rate that honors a human being risking their life to save our lives and homes.” At the end of her statement, the reality star thanked firefighters from the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection’s Ventura Training Center for “saving my community when it started burning this week.” She continued, “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.”
