Bob Menendez actually said...

"Sandy was a natural disaster, but the delays, the denials, the disputes they encountered throughout the flood insurance claims process, that was a man-made disaster."

"So while some might think privatizing the program is a simple solution, the truth is far more complicated and dangerous."

"I am pleased that we are starting the process to reform and reauthorize the National Flood Insurance Program early so that we have enough time to fix this complex program once and for all."

"My goal is to make the Flood Insurance Program simple, affordable, fair, efficient, and accountable to consumers and taxpayers."
