Kevin Roberts: “I object on behalf of the ranking member of the banking committee. This bill has not been through the committee process…”

On the recordDecember 11, 2013
I object on behalf of the ranking member of the banking committee. This bill has not been through the committee process and would undo the important rate reforms to the National Flood Insurance Program that were put in place in the most recent flood reform bill to address the program's $25 billion debt to the taxpayer. We must ensure that all Members have the opportunity to understand and weigh in on the changes being made by this action. This unanimous consent request would bypass this important step in the legislative process, and I object. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The Senator from New Jersey.
