A federal judge has rejected a request by Florida & other states for a preliminary injunction to block changes to the National Flood Insurance Program.

The National Flood Insurance Program paid $4.38 billion for more than 47,000 claims filed after last year’s Hurricane Ian.

Disaster recovery projects in Florida could be affected by the looming federal government shutdown, the White House said Thursday.

After a natural disaster, a variety of resources become available to aid in the cleanup process, including FEMA financial assistance.
