There is not a lot time left to avoid a lapse in the federal government’s flood insurance program.
The Senate is expected to follow the House, which voted last week to temporarily reauthorize the program.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said he will force a vote before the Tuesday, July 31 expiration date.
But the window is closing and any senator could create a delay in a vote that would mean a lapse in funding for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
