I was a high school teacher for 15 years, actually National Teacher of the Year, and I know that college is not for everyone.
We will not take away opportunity for so many children. We will not eliminate Pell grants and all the programs that help people from low-income communities to go to college.
This block grant will bring targeted relief to farmers to address these gaps.
As we move into farm bill negotiations, it is vital that we remember how important trade is for our producers.
