BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

National Flood Insurance Program extended

President Donald Trump has signed into law a measure that extends the National Flood Insurance Program for two weeks.

The extension was contained in a larger appropriations bill approved by the House of Representatives and Senate on Thursday. Lawmakers had approved a seven-day reauthorization of the NFIP last week, and the program would have expired today without the two-week extension.

The two-week extension is the latest in a series of short-term extensions of the debt-ridden program. Insurers and others have called for long-term reauthorization and reform of the NFIP to provide stability in the marketplace.
