Sanford Bishop: “Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. Thank you, Ranking Member Thompson. Thank you both for holding this hearing.”

It is time to fish or cut bait. America deserves this farm bill, this national security bill.

Government subsidies, again, always controversial, but in both of your written testimonies, you potentially suggested farmers are going to need some kind of economic assistance.

This is how we can say thank you for their service and sacrifice, while we celebrate 250 years of America.

Our farmers want action this year, not next. Our business community wants action now, this year.
