Help flood-prone homeowners move and update FEMA flood maps

Warren would make it easier for existing residents to move from flood-prone properties, both inland and on the coast, including by buying properties from low-income homeowners at market value. Within her first term, she would ensure FEMA’s flood maps are fully updated so the Federal Flood Risk Management Standard can raise requirements for new construction.

Context: The proposed market-value buyback is specifically for low-income homeowners.

In their own words
