This week, the Homeowners Flood Insurance Accountability Act passed the U.S. House. The legislation is intended to ease the burden of increased flood insurance rates due to the 2012 Biggert-Waters Act. Representatives Clyburn, Rice and Sanford voted in favor of the bill which must now be reconciled with the Senate version. A delegation of local officials will be in Washington next week to discuss this and other federal issues with our Members of Congress.
