@SenStabenow @SenPatRoberts @SenGaryPeters @JohnCornyn Stabenow: Mandatory Price Reporting is a critical tool that provides information on current market conditions. I look forward to working to reauthorize this law and ensure continued transparency in livestock markets. — PolitiTweet.org

@SenStabenow @SenPatRoberts @SenGaryPeters @JohnCornyn Stabenow: New opportunities in the livestock sector are helping to create markets and provide stability. However, this Administration’s chaotic and unpredictable trade agenda is overshadowing the progress we’ve made. — PolitiTweet.org

@SenStabenow Stabenow: @SenPatRoberts, you and I have worked with our colleagues @SenGaryPeters and @JohnCornyn to address the shortage of agricultural inspectors at our borders in the Protecting America’s Food & Agriculture Act. — PolitiTweet.org

@SenStabenow Stabenow: In addition to weather, livestock producers also face threats from animal diseases. The 2018 #FarmBill invested $300 million for animal disease prevention. — PolitiTweet.org

@SenStabenow Stabenow: Bomb cyclones, wildfires, and flooding have destroyed herds that have taken years – and even generations – to build. That’s why we made the livestock disaster permanent in the 2014 #FarmBill and further expanded them in the Bipartisan Budget Act last year. — PolitiTweet.org

The Administration also failed to complete an accurate impact assessment, omitting key impacts like the effect on school meals. Separately, the USDA acknowledged that a minimum of 500K students would lose access to school meals. — PolitiTweet.org

Senate Ag, Nutrition, & Forestry Committee Dems @SenateAgDems

The Administration’s proposal would cause 3.6 million Americans to lose access to food assistance, with a disproportionate impact on children, working families, and seniors. Congress deliberately rejected making these harmful changes in the 2018 #FarmBill. — PolitiTweet.org
