Sen. Steve Santarsiero, D-Bucks, and Rep. Perry Warren, D-Bucks, joined Gov. Josh Shapiro on Dec. 4 in Yardley Borough for the bill signing of House Bill 735, establishing a task force to address rising flood insurance premiums.

“After a devastating storm this summer dropped a month’s worth of rain in a span of just two hours and flash flooding swept cars off of roads, and flooded homes, schools, and businesses in Bucks County, my administration was on the ground immediately, providing assistance to rescue and recovery efforts, set up detours, and keep people safe,” Shapiro said. “Chaired by Insurance Commissioner Mike Humphreys, the task force established by HB 735 will bring together leaders from my Administration and the Legislature to closely review the needs of our communities who are at an increased risk of flooding. They’ll identify the kinds of programs that would make sure flood insurance is accessible and affordable for the Pennsylvanians who need it—and recommend the best courses of action our commonwealth can take to help increase the number of Pennsylvanians protected by flood insurance.”
