On Sept. 27, President Trump signed H.R. 4378 into law, funding the National Flood Insurance Program, and averting a government shutdown, through November 21, 2019. This is the 13th short-term measure for this program in the past two years.

On Dec. 26, FEMA notified insurers that they would not be able to sell or renew flood insurance policies under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) during the partial government shutdown.

In the key Democratic Primary elections held Tuesday, June 11, NV/RPAC supported candidates won in all but one race. Due to changing demographics and few Republican candidates on the ballot for November, these elections are likely the deciding race for who will represent Northern Virginia in the General Assembly and the Fairfax County Board.

On the state level, all 140 members of the Senate and House of Delegates will be chosen this year. Locally, board seats in Arlington, Fairfax, Loudoun, and Prince William Counties will also be decided in 2019.
