BOEBERT APPLAUDS PASSAGE OF FARM BILL AND SECURES MAJOR WINS FOR COLORADO | 2026-04-30 | 2026 | 2026-04 | Republican | House | CO | Lauren Boebert | B000825 | boebert.house.gov | boebert | https://boebert.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (CO-04) voted in favor of advancing the Farm Bill, delivering critical support for farmers and ranchers across Colorado’s Fourth Congressional District and the entire state. The House of Representatives passed H.R. 7567, the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 with a bipartisan vote of 224-200. “I have always said I’m here to deliver results for the people of Colorado, and that’s exactly what I am doing today,” said Rep. Boebert. “After some hard-fought, good-faith negotiations with Speaker Johnson, Agriculture Committee Chairman GT Thompson, and Chairman of the Appropriations Subcommittee on Agriculture Andy Harris, I voted ‘YES’ to move the farm bill forward.” Rep. Boebert emphasized that her vote was secured only after she obtained significant victories for her district. She successfully included key amendments in the Agriculture Appropriations bill, most notably designating millet as a specialty crop—a major win for farmers on Colorado’s eastern plains. She also secured the inclusion of her Finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit Act, which will finally deliver long-awaited clean, reliable water to communities in Southeastern Colorado. Additionally, Rep. Boebert has been promised a seat on the Farm Bill Conference Committee, where she will serve as a lead negotiator to ensure her CREP Improvement Act and other critical policies are incorporated into the final version of the bill. “I voted yes for our farmers, ranchers, and producers,” Rep. Boebert stated. “I have a significant seat at the table where I will work to secure massive wins for the 4th District and our entire state.” Background: H.R. 7567, the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026, provides essential support for agriculture, conservation programs, and rural economies. Rep. Boebert’s vote reflects her continued commitment to fighting for Colorado’s hardworking farmers and ranchers, ensuring they have the resources and policy support needed to thrive. Congresswoman Boebert successfully advocated for key legislative wins that were included in H.R. 7567: | 1 | 2026-06-27T21:44:12Z | 2026-06-27T22:19:40Z |
