Idaho Congressman Mike Simpson has signed a letter addressed to Republican Leadership, advocating for the reauthorization of a farm bill as a priority for the 118th Congress. The letter was led by Representatives Mark Alford (R-MO), Ashley Hinson (R-IA), Mary Miller (R-IL), and Jen Kiggans (R-VA). It aims to reaffirm House Republicans' commitment to advancing legislation that supports rural America and invests in essential programs for agricultural producers.
"Congress must work to address the needs of America's farmers by passing a farm bill that puts our farmers, ranchers, and producers first," said Rep. Simpson. "Idaho’s farmers and ranchers cannot afford to wait until the next Congress before enactment of a new farm bill; we must swiftly take action and get this bill across the finish line. Supporting Idaho’s agriculture is one of my top priorities, and I am proud to join this effort urging passage of a strong farm bill before the end of the 118th Congress that provides certainty for Gem State farmers and producers."
