Farm Bureau Commends House Vote to End Shutdown

American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall commented today on the House vote to end the government shutdown.

“Farm Bureau applauds the House for its vote to end the government shutdown, swiftly following the Senate’s vote. Farmers and ranchers rely on critical USDA services and disaster relief programs during these tough economic times, as do Americans who need access to food assistance programs and other services.

“We urge President Trump to quickly sign the continuing resolution so Congress can return its focus to policies that will improve the farm economy and expand opportunities for America’s farm families.”
