Arrington Statement on the 2018 Farm Bill Vote

Statement

Date: May 17, 2018
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Agriculture and Food

Congressman Jodey Arrington (TX-19), member of the House Agriculture Committee, released the following statement on the Agriculture and Nutrition Act of 2018(H.R.2), commonly referred to as the 2018 Farm Bill.

"I am disappointed that an unrelated policy issue was the motivating factor in today's Farm Bill vote," said Arrington. "I have no doubt that things will be worked out in short order, and the Farm Bill, in its current form, will pass the House in the next few weeks.

"Passing a good Farm Bill is critical to ag producers, rural communities, and our nation's economy and defense."
