David Scott: “The food program is essential to the farm bill.”

My feeling is Speaker Johnson will not bring this bill to the floor for a vote because it was not written as a serious bill.

We are not going to have nutrition if we don't have farmers.

If there are Members on the other side of the aisle that truly want to see a farm bill come to fruition this year, my door remains open to negotiation from any partner willing to come to the table with a serious proposal, not more red…

It is clear that we need to come together, Republicans and Democrats, on a farm bill that strengthens the farm safety net, and we are going to do it together.
