Political Quotes

On the recordMarch 29, 2023
I think we have another Senator from West Virginia that is ready to speak over here. I want to just close with this. The U.S. Department of Agriculture stands ready to work with farmers and ranchers to assist them with compliance. I will say that again: The U.S. Department of Agriculture stands ready to stand with farmers and ranchers to assist them with compliance.

This is not the Trump rule, and this is not the Obama rule. It is a compromise, and I think it is one that deserves to be supported.
