WASHINGTON, D.C. (RFD NEWS) — Ahead of next week’s full committee markup of H.R. 7567, the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026, Rep. Glenn “GT” Thompson (R-PA) released a detailed breakdown (PDF Version) showing the partisan — or rather, “tri-partisan” — makeup of legislation incorporated into the bill.
According to the analysis released by the House Committee on Agriculture chairman, 181 standalone bills influenced H.R. 7567. Of those, 82 percent had bipartisan cosponsors. In addition to those bipartisan measures, the bill includes provisions from 14 Democrat-only bills and 18 Republican-only bills.
The breakdown does not include additional provisions that originated from bipartisan member priorities and lacked a formal standalone marker bill.
“I always like to say that a good Farm Bill process is ‘tri-partisan’ because it’s a collaboration between Republicans, Democrats, and stakeholders,” Thompson said. “The Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 reflects this principle from start to finish and across all 12 titles. The numbers don’t lie — this is a bipartisan Farm Bill, and calling it anything else is a serious mischaracterization of the facts. I look forward to deliberating on this bill next week with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle as we work to move American agriculture forward.”
The analysis includes legislation incorporated in full, as well as bills whose specific provisions were included in the final package.
The House Agriculture Committee is scheduled to begin marking up H.R. 7567 on Tuesday, March 3, at 5 p.m. Eastern. The markup will be streamed live, with updates posted throughout the process on social media. Additional details, including title-by-title summaries and one-pagers, are available on the committee’s website.
