The 119th Congress is in session, and ag lawmakers are ready to get to work.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune says he has an aggressive agenda to tackle for farm families.
“Extending the tax relief Republicans delivered during the first Trump Administration, lifting burdensome and expensive government regulations to help American businesses and families flourish, bringing appropriations bills to the floor for serious deliberation so that we make the best possible use of taxpayer dollars, and an overdue farm bill to update farm programs for farmers and ranchers to reflect current agricultural needs.”
Aside from taking on the leadership role, Thune remains on the Senate Ag Committee. He is hoping that a new farm bill can get passed soon but acknowledges it will require bipartisan support.
