McEachin | M001200 | mceachin.house.gov | legacy | WASHINGTON Congressman A. Donald McEachin (VA-04) issued this statement on his vote in support of the Conference Report on the farm bill: As I promised I would, I stood up for the needs of the farmers in my district in this critical legislation. After months of hard work and conversation, we finally have a bill that supports and assists farmers in Virginia and across the country who feed our families. I am pleased that with this legislation we can fulfill our moral obligation to fight hunger, and give farmers the fair, level playing field they need to do business and feed America. Earlier this year, I led more than 100 of my colleagues on a letter opposing anti-environmental and conservation provisions in the previously passed House version of the Farm Bill. While there is always more work to be done, I am pleased that our collective efforts yielded the removal of the most egregious provisions. I am committed to being a strong voice against policies that harm our Earth. ### Contact: Jamitress Bowden (202) 225-6365 | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
