The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) will continue without a lapse, at least for six weeks, as the House acted on a continuing resolution to keep the government funded through Nov. 18.

Early in the week of Sept. 26, as the House and Senate were scrambling to keep the government funded while legislators were leaving Washington in observance of the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah, the Senate approved two continuing resolutions: one for one week, and one until Nov. 18.

Later that week, the House approved by unanimous consent the one-week continuing resolution, which contained an NFIP extension through Oct. 4.
