Why This Matters
The NFIP Extension Act of 2026 keeps the National Flood Insurance Program running for three more years, ensuring people can still get flood insurance coverage. This is important for protecting homes and businesses in flood-prone areas.
If you live in a flood-prone area, you can continue to get flood insurance coverage without any gaps.
