National Farmers Union Praises House Vote- Says Farm Bill Can Be Finished This Year
Mon, 30 Sep 2013 05:27:07 CDT
National Farmers Union (NFU) President Roger Johnson issued the following statement on Saturday after the U.S. House of Representatives passed a rule that would relink farm programs and nutrition programs:
"Today's actions should pave the way for the farm bill to be completed this year. Extending the 2008 Farm Bill again is not an adequate solution. While it is obvious we will not have a completed farm bill by its expiration on Sept. 30, I urge House leadership to appoint conferees so that the process of conferencing the Senate and House versions of the bill can begin right away.
"NFU will continue to advocate for a five-year, comprehensive farm bill to be completed in the next month."
