Jim Costa: “I was listening to the gentleman from Iowa, and was reminded of how much our industries have changed.”

I think we all pray that we can come together on a farm bill before the end of the year.

Food is a national security issue.

I think that farmers, ranchers, dairymen and -women are critical in so many different ways, but they are also stewards of the environment.

I appreciate your support for this project in this year's bill and ask that you provide the remaining funds necessary in fiscal year 2025 to complete the general re-evaluation report.
