They risk their lives to save us, but they get paid $1 per hour- Kim Kardashian calls for firefighter salaries to be raised

Kim Kardashian is speaking out on social media, urging California Governor Gavin Newsom to raise the salaries of firefighters currently battling the Los Angeles fires.

In a series of Instagram posts, Kim revealed that many firefighters are paid just $1 per hour, despite the dangerous nature of their work. She pointed out that this pay rate has remained unchanged since 1984.

Kim also highlighted the tragic fact that many firefighters have lost their lives while performing their duties, further stressing the need for a pay raise to reflect the risks they face every day.

She wrote in a post: ‘“On all 5 fires in Los Angeles, there are hundreds of incarcerated firefighters, risking their lives to save us,” she wrote on her Instagram Stories late Saturday night.

“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.”
