Mann Pushes for Five-Year Farm Bill | 2023-11-30 | 2023 | 2023-11 | Republican | House | KS | Tracey Mann | M000871 | mann.house.gov | mann | https://mann.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – This week, U.S. Representative Tracey Mann (KS-01) called Congress’ attention to the importance of reauthorizing a five-year Farm Bill. “Many people in Washington have forgotten about the importance of a five-year Farm Bill,” said Rep. Mann. “A five-year Farm Bill is long enough to provide certainty to producers, and short enough for Congress to respond to market changes and strengthen the farm safety net. The last Farm Bill was signed on December 20, 2018, and a lot has changed since then. We have seen a global pandemic devastate the supply chain, war between Russia and Ukraine, the Biden Administration’s failed trade agenda, inflation hit a record high, and some of the worst drought conditions in decades. We need a five-year Farm Bill to address these changes. American farmers, ranchers, and agricultural producers deserve it, America’s food and national security depend on it, and Congress must deliver it.” Rep. Mann believes that a five-year Farm Bill must: Strengthen and maintain crop insurance Promote trade programs that help America remain competitive and secure Conduct rigorous oversight of the executive branch to fight big government overreach Invest in agricultural research at America’s land-grant universities “If you think about a safety net, the higher the risk, the higher the fall, and the stronger the safety net you need to survive,” said Rep. Mann. “Producers’ risk levels are at an all-time high because of inflation, input costs, and other market changes. The livelihoods of American producers and consumers are on the line right now, and that means our food security and national security are on the line, too. American farmers, ranchers, and agricultural producers need certainty like never before – and Congress must deliver for them with a five-year Farm Bill.” Click here to watch Rep.
