I realize there are those who think the GND is a moral imperative. But, farmers continuing to feed the world is also a moral imperative. Too many go hungry each day in America, ending this is also a moral imperative. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Pat Roberts @SenPatRoberts

These policy discussions must recognize the complexity of the agriculture and food value chain—growers, input suppliers, processors, handlers, and consumers. And, they must be based in reality to facilitate a genuine conversation between rural and urban constituencies. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Pat Roberts @SenPatRoberts

Consumers will assuredly continue to demand the choice of animal protein here in the U.S., and so any reasonable discussion on the agriculture sector’s contributions to solutions on climate change must begin with this acknowledgment. — PolitiTweet.org

Over the last 50 years American farmers have reduced water use in pork production by 41%. — PolitiTweet.org

American farmers and ranchers raise the same amount of beef today as they did in the 1970s, but they do so with 33% fewer cattle. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Pat Roberts @SenPatRoberts

Obviously, we cannot, and do not, produce food in the same manner our grandparents did, because those methods were not sustainable and today would not produce food at the scope and scale our troubled and hungry world demands. — PolitiTweet.org

The @FoundationFAR leverages public and private dollars to bring together experts to identify and investigate the researchable questions whose answers have the potential to enhance the economic and environmental resilience of our food supply. — PolitiTweet.org

I do not question the intent of the authors of the #GreenNewDeal but they don’t know what they don’t know. They need to catch up with the Agriculture committee and with farm country. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Pat Roberts @SenPatRoberts

within agriculture, there is nothing “New” with the #GreenNewDeal — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Pat Roberts @SenPatRoberts

To Supporters of the #GreenNewDeal: The men & women who make their living off the land have an imperative & keen interest in responsible use of natural resources. Show me a farmer who does not practice conservation or does not use latest tech & I will show you a farmer in trouble — PolitiTweet.org

We must have comprehensive immigration reform, which starts with a secure border. We also need further resources at the southern border to deal with the humanitarian crisis hurting the thousands of migrants who attempt to enter our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Pat Roberts @SenPatRoberts

I agree with the president’s assessment that we have reached a crisis point at the border, and this is nothing new. For many years, control of our southern border has been a fundamental failure of our first obligation to protect the national security of the United States. — PolitiTweet.org
