John Boozman: “The reality suggests the existing safety nets need to be enhanced.”

While this is clearly welcome progress, we need more of our colleagues’ votes to reflect the urgency of supporting farmers, ranchers, forest landowners and rural communities.

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.

Our federal courts deserve facilities that are well maintained and able to meet the needs of the judges, legal professionals and the public they serve.

I’m deeply disappointed by this outcome.
