Dear Representative _________________,

My name is ________________, and I’m a registered voter in (name of state). I am writing to talk about the Multiple Perils Insurance Act—H.R 920.

Specifically, I wish to express my support for this important legislation. This bill will expand the National Flood Insurance Program to include all natural perils such as wind, and it would be financed in a way that pays for itself.

The bill is fiscally responsible, and therefore it would comply with the new House rules. I hope that I can count on your support for this important law.

Thank you.

Sincerely,


Your name
Your address
