Maloney (D-NY) today released the following statement on the failure to renew the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act. “The Terrorism Risk Insurance Act is essential to New York City’s economy and the economies of other cities that continue to be terrorist targets. The failure to extend it will have a very harmful effect. “Without TRIA, new development projects will be stalled, and there will be substantial financial uncertainty for current policy holders. Since banks often require ‘all risk’ policies in order to provide financing, the elimination of TRIA could place property owners in default on their loans. Sporting and other entertainment events at major venues could be canceled. “The vast majority of Senate and House members strongly supported extending this program. But it will not be extended, because Tea Party politicians, who lack the will or ability to compromise, stood in the way. Their obstructionism will reap negative economic consequences on businesses throughout our country. “From the very beginning, I believed a clean TRIA bill, lacking unnecessary and unproductive riders, was the best strategy. I hope that the House and Senate will make this legislation a top priority in the new Congress, and will quickly pass a long-term reauthorization of this vital program in January.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
