Congessman Peterson Confident Farm Bill Can be Completed This Year

Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:34:17 CDT

U.S. House Agriculture Committee Ranking Member Collin C. Peterson, D-Minn., made the following statement after the U.S. Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry approved the 2012 Farm Bill, "The Agriculture Reform, Food and Jobs Act of 2012."

"This brings us one step closer to having a farm bill in place before the current bill expires in September. Chairwoman Stabenow and Ranking Member Roberts have found a bipartisan way to move forward and the full Senate should now take action. Given today's action, the House Agriculture Committee should move quickly to mark-up a farm bill.

"The strong, bipartisan tone set by the Senate mark-up makes me more confident that we can get past some of the recent partisanship and get a farm bill done this year. We know there will be differences between the House and Senate bills but I am confident that, if permitted, we can work through these differences in conference committee."
