Yes. Now, we could pass an extension again and throw this into the lap of everyone next year. That doesn't create any more certainty for farmers. Those who want to just do some ad hoc payments, you know, that is not going to work. And so…

The current farm bill expires at the end of December. So we have to do something before we leave in December.

A number of our congresswomen are interested.

I predict a very good Democratic year in 2026 regardless of what happens in a Democratic primary.
