Tom Vilsack: “I authored the Ag Disaster Trust Fund in the Farm Bill, and I am very happy that it is there.”

States know who the recipients are because they administer the SNAP Program, and they also know where the jobs are.

I think you two gentlemen have laid out a plan that addresses the fundamental weakness of our current farm policy.

I think there are a lot of misconceptions about SNAP, and I think it stems from who people think are on SNAP.

What I am happy to do is work with the Members of this Committee and others to pass the Farm Workforce Modernization Act (117th Congress--H.R. 1603), which could have solved this problem, Congressman.
