Little time remains before the Friday deadline for President Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill.”
Ag groups praised the Senate’s passage yesterday, and many hope the House can get the bill to the White House before the self-imposed deadline.
Overnight, the House Rules Committee held a nearly 12-hour-long debate on the bill. It advanced out of committee, setting the stage for a full House vote. House Speaker Mike Johnson told Fox News last night that he hopes to get the voting started today or tomorrow by the latest.
Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins released a statement on the Senate’s passage of the bill. She said in partthat the bill is a desperately needed win for farmers and ranchers, as well as the entire agricultural community. She praises the improvements to areas like safety nets, crop insurance, and trade.
Secretary Rollins also met with specialty crop producers at a local strawberry farm to discuss workforce needs and the Trump Administration’s recent wins related to significantly cutting the cost of H-2A labor for California farmers.
