| https://toomey.senate.gov?p=news&id=2309 | Senator Toomey Statement on Farm Bill | 2018-12-11 | 2018 | 2018-12 | Republican | House | PA | Patrick Toomey | T000461 | toomey.senate.gov | legacy | Washington, D.C. - U.S. Senator Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) released the following statement after the Senate approved the Farm Bill: "This Farm Bill is a wasted opportunity to rein in excessive spending and end corporate welfare. It makes no attempt to curb taxpayer-funded handouts or reform the broken sugar program that forces American consumers to pay twice as much for sugar as the rest of the world. Further, efforts to establish a reasonable work requirement for adult, able-bodied food stamp recipients with no dependents, were abandoned. American farmers, consumers, and taxpayers deserved better." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
