In our continued efforts to push for significant reform and long-term NFIP reauthorization, ASFPM has put together a detailed priority list of what it hopes to see happen with the federal flood insurance program in FY2023
Key recommendations ASFPM detailed in a letter to the U.S. Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security regarding FEMA funding for fiscal year 2023.
ASFPM has sent a letter to members of the Senate Appropriations Committee strongly urging funding of FEMA’s flood risk map program at a minimum of $263 million for FY21.
In the comments, ASFPM advocates for a simplified CRS program that reduces administrative burdens, making it easier for more communities to participate.
ASFPM would like to see investments in proactive voluntary measures to restore and maintain the function of floodplains to reduce flood risk in farm communities
