Oklahoma Congressman Frank Lucas Re-elected to Second Term As House Ag Committee Chairman

Wed, 28 Nov 2012 20:13:23 CST

Rep. Frank Lucas of Oklahoma issued the following statement after the House Republican Conference re-elected him to serve a second term as Chairman of the Agriculture Committee for the 113th Congress.

"It is an honor to serve in this leadership position and I am grateful for the opportunity to continue working on behalf of America's farmers, ranchers, and rural constituents.

"I am proud of the work the Committee has completed over the past two years. We have provided valuable oversight of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the Environmental Protection Agency to ensure that our agricultural producers are not burdened with unreasonable and costly regulations.

"And, we advanced a strong, reform-minded, fiscally responsible farm bill that can save billions of dollars and provide certainty to our agricultural producers. This process is not complete though I am confident that it's just a matter of time.

"I look forward to working with my colleagues to ensure the health and vitality of production agriculture and rural economies," said Chairman Frank D. Lucas.
