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.

I’m deeply disappointed by this outcome.

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