Bipartisan legislation has been introduced to support rural small businesses and jobs. Ohio's dairy industry is vital, with discussions on policy issues in the Farm Bill. Efforts are underway to pass a bipartisan Farm Bill to reduce hunger, strengthen farmers, revitalize rural areas, and lower costs. Secretary Vilsack is commended for advocating SNAP benefits and food security. Discussions in the House Agriculture Committee focus on feeding Americans, protecting farmers, and expanding markets for U.S. farmers through trade opportunities.
Bolstering domestic biofuels production is critical to lowering energy costs & supporting America’s family farmers. In today’s @HouseAgDems hearing, I underscored the importance of investing in an all-of-the-above energy approach with @SecVilsack. https://t.co/Hid7PKNBWg
Today at the @HouseAgGOP hearing I pressed @SecVilsack on key priorities for Ohio’s agriculture industry.

I commend Sec Vilsack for pushing states like Georgia to eliminate delays in administering SNAP benefits. These programs are lifelines to families, which is why as Ranking Member of House Ag I have been fighting cuts to SNAP & pushing for improved food security for all Americans. https://t.co/6OKw8cbaET

With roughly 2,200 dairy farms in Ohio, the dairy industry is crucial to our local communities and national food supply. Thank you to Ohio Dairy @higgins84 for meeting with my team. I’m excited to work together to make strides in the Farm Bill on key policy issues impacting Ohio.
