SHELTERING FROM THE STORM U.S. Representatives from Florida Gus Bilirakis and Charlie Crist have introduced their "Shelter Act," a plan to offer tax credits for homeowners, families, and businesses threatened by natural disasters. According to the Representatives, the bill will "help Americans protect their homes or businesses against hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, drought, and wildfires" by creating a "first-of-its-kind disaster mitigation tax credit for families and business owners in disaster-prone areas," Florida Daily reports. Other supporters include Louisiana Rep. Bill Cassidy and Colorado Rep. Michael Bennet. "With Hurricane Season underway, my constituents and all Americans living in coastal regions are susceptible to these devastating storms. Disaster can strike at any time, often with little warning. It's never too early to prepare. Taking steps now to reinforce a roof covering, or protect an exterior window, could mean the difference between saving money in the long-run and dealing with major property damage," said Bilirakis, who introduced the bill. "is legislation is about helping our communities be proactive when it comes to preparing for hurricane season. Our local emergency managers in Pasco, Pinellas, and Hillsborough Counties do an incredible job of ensuring our communities are ready. But preparedness must also begin at home. Our bill encourages that." "As Americans, we know all too well that disaster can strike when we least expect it. For working families who own homes and businesses, a natural disaster can leave their lives and livelihoods literally in pieces," Crist said. "is bipartisan legislation puts power back into the hands of the people, rewarding small businesses and homeowners who prepare for the unexpected and invest in protecting their property from hurricanes, floods, and everything in between." e bill has drawn support from organizations such as BuildStrong Coalition, the Federal Alliance for Safer Homes, the Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety, the National Association of Home Builders, the National Ready Mix Concrete Association, the National Realtors Association, the Smarter Safer Coalition, and Home Depot.
