NASHVILLE, TENN. (RFD NEWS) — House Agriculture Committee Chairman, Rep. Glenn “GT” Thompson (R-PA), says the panel will debate a new Farm Bill later this month, from February 23-25.
The legislation will focus on issues such as preempting state pesticide labeling laws, addressing Proposition 12 animal-welfare rules, and codifying the Food for Peace program under the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
This ‘skinny’ Farm Bill will be smaller than the Trump Administration’s landmark legislation, the “One Big Beautiful Bill” Act (OBBBA), which passed last year, and is expected to address remaining agricultural issues, such as Conservation Reserve Program reauthorization and USDA loan limit increases.
