LMA President: The Heritage Act aims to preserve family-owned ag land

Mike Vanmaanen, president of the Livestock Marketing Association, joins us Friday on the Market Day Report for a closer look at the Heritage Act.

A new piece of legislation aims to help preserve family-owned agricultural land. The Heritage Act would expand special-use valuation to reduce the estate tax value of farms and ranches.

Mike Vanmaanen, president of the Livestock Marketing Association, joins us Friday on the Market Day Report for a closer look at the legislation.

In his interview with RFDTV’s own Suzanne Alexander, Vanmaanen explained how the Death Tax impacts farm and ranch families, how the Heritage Act could help, the next steps for the bill, and some topics LMA will discuss at their conference in Omaha.
