Florida Legislation to Watch In 2025
Senior Policy Advisor Beth Vecchioli was quoted in Law360 article discussing the potential focus on improving storm recovery processes in Florida, particularly in the aftermath of recent hurricanes. She highlighted issues such as gasoline availability during power outages and the need for reforms to the National Flood Insurance Program, which she described as outdated and bureaucratic. Ms. Vecchioli suggested that these topics, alongside possible action involving the Florida Division of Emergency Management, are likely to gain attention in the Florida Legislature's upcoming session.
"The problem is that even when a gas station runs out of gas, we can get trucks there relatively quickly. But if they don't have power, we can't pump it. It's just a bad situation for everybody," she said.
