John Boozman: “I am committed to getting this thing done as quickly as we can.”

I’m a guy that’s pretty low key and pretty good at working with people to get things done. And we’ve worked really hard to get this done. Farmers desperately need it.

It’s time for the Senate to pass this legislation and provide the regulatory clarity the marketplace needs to ensure the U.S. remains a global leader.

I hope that after people are home visiting with their constituents, visiting with their farmers, visiting with their states…that the Democrats will vote for the bill.

Should this legislation be defeated today, current law will remain in effect, and states who poorly administer SNAP programs will begin to pay for the portion of the benefit cost next year.
