Flood insurance rate delays spark House Senate clash
Lawmakers debate delaying flood premium increases tied to a 2012 subsidy phaseout. The Senate plan, led by Menendez and Isakson, would pause rate hikes for primary homes and code-built businesses until FEMA finishes affordability studies and new maps. CBO says a 2.1 billion revenue loss over 10 years. Critics warn it worsens the NFIP deficit of 24 billion. Senator Shelby opposes delays.

Des Moines led with 1741 incidents, Davenport 814, and total costs around 2.5 million dollars. The data show many small firms underreporting, and a large railcar share of releases.
