Welch Statement on Republicans’ Draft Farm Bill

WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Senator Peter Welch (D-Vt.), a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, today released the following statement on Senate Republicans’ draft Farm Bill: America’s agriculture policy is broken—farmers can’t afford to farm, families can’t put food on the table, and rural communities have been left behind. Farmers in Vermont and across the nation create an immense amount of wealth, but they don’t get anything close to a fair share of it. [ ]
