President Trump has decided to revoke the Federal Flood Protection Standard, making communities less safe and exposing the country to greater damage from disastrous flood events.

The flood protection standard required federally-funded infrastructure, like public housing, hospitals, fire stations, and highways, to be built with a higher margin of safety against extreme floods and sea level rise.

Democrats should put up billboards proclaiming this fact in Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina. In fact, anywhere that flooding has been a disaster.

How did Trump do this?

He is not president.

If he did it when he was president, then why didn’t Joe reinstate it?

He did this when he was President. Biden did reinstate it when he became President.

The Flood-Protection Rule That Trump Rolled Back

One policy he eradicated that day was a set of standards aimed at ensuring that anything built with taxpayer money — including hospitals, sewage treatment plants, bridges and libraries — could withstand flooding and rising seas caused by climate change.

When Trump was elected, he took aim at every policy linked to the phrase “climate change” and repealed it. President Biden reinstated the standard, which went into effect at most agencies this year.
