Press Releases

House Committee on Financial Services Chairman French Hill (AR-02) released the following statement after the U.S. House of Representatives passed a short-term continuing resolution, which included the extension of the Defense Production Act (DPA) and the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).

“Protecting the homes of American families and strengthening our national security are two of our most important responsibilities in Congress. I’m proud that the House secured the extension of these critical provisions so at-risk property owners across the country have continued access to flood insurance and our government can speed up production of necessary supplies in the event of a crisis. As Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, I’m committed to working on extending the DPA and reviewing ways we can improve and strengthen the NFIP moving forward.”
