Plain Language Summary

# Flood Insurance Tax Credit Act of 2025 Summary **What the Bill Would Do** The Flood Insurance Tax Credit Act of 2025 would create a tax credit for individuals and families who purchase flood insurance. Rather than being required to shoulder the full cost of flood insurance premiums, eligible taxpayers would receive a credit to reduce their federal income tax liability, making flood insurance more affordable. The bill aims to encourage more property owners in flood-prone areas to obtain insurance coverage. **Who It Affects** This bill would primarily benefit homeowners and property owners in flood-prone areas, particularly lower and middle-income households that struggle with the high cost of flood insurance premiums.

The measure could indirectly benefit insurance companies and communities by increasing insurance coverage rates in at-risk areas. **Current Status** As of now, the bill (HR 5504) is in committee and has not yet been voted on by the full House of Representatives. This means it remains in the early stages of the legislative process and would need committee approval and broader congressional support before it could become law. The specific details of the tax credit amount and eligibility requirements have not been provided in the available information.
