Josh Riley’s shutdown leaves homeowners stranded in the storm

Out-of-touch Democrat Josh Riley’s shutdown has halted the National Flood Insurance Program, stopping renewals and freezing new policies for families living in flood zones. Thousands of home closings are on hold, and homeowners are now facing hurricane season without protection, all because Democrats chose politics over preparedness. For families on the coast and in river towns, every day of this shutdown means more anxiety and more risk.

“Republicans are fighting to reopen the government and protect homeowners; Democrats like Josh Riley are leaving them to fend for themselves.” —  NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
