Expand the National Flood Insurance Program to cover all major declared disasters: hurricane, earthquake, wildfire, etc

Created by D.R. on November 30, 2012

Petition to require the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) to expand to include earthquake, hurricane, major fire, wildfire, tornado and other major natural and man-made disasters, as declared by the President. Currently, the NFIP only covers "rising water". The new coverage would help millions of Americans who are currently not covered (or covered by a policy at a great expense). More Americans covered over a greater number of risks would benefit all who choose to purchase this insurance. It also benefits the system itself. This may require a change of the program name to the National Disaster Insurance Program (NDIP).
