House Ag Committee Charmain Applauds Passage of Senate Ag Bill
Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:25:08 CDT
Congressman Frank Lucas applauded the Senate's passage of the 2012 Farm Bill. Passage now clears the way for the House to bring its bill to the floor.
"I commend Chairwoman Stabenow and Ranking Member Roberts on passage of S. 3240, the Agriculture Reform, Food, and Jobs Act. It was a challenge to move this legislation and their efforts have made it possible," Lucas said
"Although there will be differences between the Senate approach and our own, I hope my colleagues are encouraged by this success when we meet on the 11th to consider our own legislation. The House Agriculture Committee will consider a balanced proposal that saves taxpayers billions of dollars, recognizes the diversity of American agriculture, respects the risks producers face, and preserves the tools necessary for food production."
