Florida lawmakers consider bills to revive program that helps homeowners with storm prep work

While Florida homeowners anxiously await property insurance relief, legislators are considering more than a dozen bills that would revive the My Safe Florida Home Program, which provides financial assistance for storm readiness work. Florida Gov. Ron Desantis is asking the Florida Legislature for $600 million to fund the My Safe Florida Home Program. Legislators are considering 15 various pieces of legislation to get the program back on track after it ran out of money last year — resulting in thousands of Florida families being put on the waitlist.
