U.S. Congressman Roger Marshall, M.D, who was unable to return to D.C. due to an urgent family medical issue that required his presence, made the following statement on the bill:
"I am pleased to see this Continuing Resolution includes funding for the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC), to make commodity, conservation, and trade promotion payments required by the Farm Bill," said Rep. Marshall. "The CCC includes crucial programs farmers and ranchers have signed up for and depend on as part of their marketing and business decisions."
