									<!----><p></p><p>WASHINGTON &mdash; Hurricane Harvey&rsquo;s still-rising flood waters have altered the landscape well beyond Texas: They have put aside, at least for now, vast differences within the Republican Party.</p><p>Instead of the discord and infighting that have marked the first seven months of the Trump administration, Republican leaders on both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue are vowing to swiftly approve recovery funds for the areas devastated by the storm. There&rsquo;s also an emerging consensus that the often controversial national flood insurance plan must be reauthorized and talk of a government shutdown is even being drowned out.</p><p>&ldquo;The lesson that I think most people will take from Harvey is that bad things happen to good people,&rdquo; said Senator John Kennedy, a Louisiana Republican and self-described fiscal conservative. &ldquo;Part of the role of government is to be there to take folks&rsquo; hard-earned taxpayer money and return it to them when, through no fault of their own, something bad happens to them.&rdquo;</p><div class="inline-ad inline-ad--bordered inline-ad-1">

<p>Congress still faces a daunting to-do list when it returns Tuesday from August recess. Lawmakers must raise the so-called debt ceiling to avoid a financial crisis and pass a spending bill to keep the government open, all by the end of the month. And Harvey&rsquo;s catastrophic flood waters have cast a new spotlight on another Sept. 30 deadline &mdash; the expiration of the National Flood Insurance Program, which is expected to be swamped with Harvey-related claims.</p><!-- total:0 -->

<p>But the sheer devastation from the storm provides an incentive to smooth over the political squabbles surrounding those must-pass measures. That includes President Trump, who has been threatening to close the federal government if Congress fails to include money for his wall on the southern border.</p><p>&ldquo;There is an opportunity for Trump to show he can focus on a major problem and govern,&rdquo; said Ryan Williams, a Republican strategist. &ldquo;When the president is strong, the entire party is strong. He needs to focus on this storm. Put every other issue aside.&rdquo;</p><p>Washington is already swirling with talk of the massive emergency spending package Congress will almost certainly need to pass to help Houston and other ravaged areas rebuild. While it will be some time before officials in Texas and Washington tally up a final price tag, one option under discussion is for Congress to include a down payment on disaster relief money in the spending bill to fund the government. </p><div class="inline-ad inline-ad--bordered inline-ad-2">

<p>That move could help ease its passage and avoid a government shutdown, the odds of which had been inching higher in recent weeks before the storm. </p><p>&ldquo;Simply in terms of vote-counting, it may make it easier to pass must-pass spending bills if they include money to help hurricane recovery efforts,&rdquo; said Michael Steel, a former spokesman to ex-House speaker John Boehner. </p><p>Hurricane Harvey increases the likelihood of a swift, short-term renewal of the flood insurance program. Congress has struggled for years to overhaul the program and put it on sound financial footing. </p><p id="U833572959896vqC" style=" letter-spacing: -25; ;">The program provides essentially all the flood insurance in the country, covering more than 5 million properties in the United States, and has been in financial trouble since Hurricane Katrina in 2005. That year, with Katrina claims followed by those related to Hurricanes Rita and Wilma, the program was forced to borrow $17.5 billion from the US Treasury to cover all the damage claims the program needed to pay out. </p><p>It&rsquo;s been essentially insolvent ever since and is now close to $25 billion in debt. The crux of the problem: The program takes in less money in premiums than it pays out.</p><div class="inline-ad inline-ad--bordered inline-ad-3">

<p>Lawmakers of both parties from states with flooding issues have resisted changes that would hike costs for their constituents.

</div><p>Kennedy, the Louisiana senator, is still pushing for a bipartisan overhaul bill, with the goal of making more sustainable. &ldquo;It doesn&rsquo;t make sense to give anyone a bus ticket if there are no buses,&rdquo; Kennedy said in a conference call Tuesday. </p><p>But he has no plans to hold the program hostage. &ldquo;To me it&rsquo;s unthinkable not to have some reauthorization. That&rsquo;s not going to happen. That&rsquo;s just not going to happen,&rdquo; he said.</p><p>On the House side, the speaker&rsquo;s office agrees with the sentiment. &ldquo;Details are still being worked through, but the flood insurance program will be reauthorized,&rdquo; predicted AshLee Strong, a spokeswoman for Speaker Paul Ryan. </p><p>He&rsquo;ll have to contend with conservatives in his conference, who have long been clamoring for major changes in the flood insurance program. </p><p id="U833572959896BhG" style=" letter-spacing: -29; ;">House Financial Services chairman Jeb Hensarling, a conservative Texas Republican who leads the committee that oversees the program, is pushing House leaders to take up legislation approved by the panel earlier this summer that would make big and controversial changes to the program, with the aim of restoring it to financial health. His package aims to spur private insurers to start writing flood policies and push communities with persistent flooding to pursue mitigation steps to limit future damage. </p><p>Critics say the bill could make insurance unaffordable for many homeowners, though Hensarling argues it would lower costs.</p><p>Hensarling warned that failure to enact the changes he&rsquo;s proposing will amount to Congress passing &ldquo;another taxpayer-funded bailout&rdquo; of the program, since there won&rsquo;t be enough money in the program to cover the claims Harvey will generate.</p><p>The storm waters in Texas have destroyed homes and businesses that are well outside the floodplains, which means there will be large swaths of the affected areas where people have no insurance to cover the damages.</p><p>That&rsquo;s fueling the conversation about a relief bill similar to the $50 billion package approved after Hurricane Sandy ravaged the East Coast in 2012. Texas Senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn, along with almost every Texas Republican in the House, opposed the measure, casting votes that would have left New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut with little relief from one of the costliest hurricanes in US history. Complaints from the Texas delegation included that the legislation didn&rsquo;t offset the new spending with cuts elsewhere and that it was stuffed with unrelated goodies.</p><p>But in the past few days lawmakers from Sandy states have made it clear they plan to take the political high road. </p><p>&ldquo;Ted Cruz &amp; Texas cohorts voted [against] NY/NJ aid after Sandy but I&rsquo;ll vote 4 Harvey aid,&rdquo; wrote New York Republican Representative Peter King on Twitter over the weekend. &ldquo;NY wont abandon Texas. 1 bad turn doesnt deserve another.&rdquo; </p><p>There&rsquo;s even some bipartisan sentiment for forgiveness in the wake of the record storm. &ldquo;No one is looking to act vindictively,&rdquo; said New Jersey Democratic Representative Bill Pascrell on Tuesday. &ldquo;We hope this reminder reinforces the need for bipartisan federal disaster support going forward.&rdquo; </p><!----><p></p><em xmlns:pc="xalan://com.eidosmedia.portal.PortalContext">Victoria McGrane can be reached at <a class="a" href="mailto:victoria.mcgrane@globe.com">victoria.mcgrane@globe.com</a>.
