John Boozman: “I think probably the creativity and the direction will come from here. It will not come from over there.”

I’m deeply disappointed by this outcome.

North Dakota farm families helped shape the Working Families Tax Cuts, and because we listened to their priorities, we made sure the law included enhancements to the farm safety net.

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.

I’m pleased to continue working with Senator Hoeven to strengthen the future of American agriculture.
