The facts are that a majority of Republicans have opposed farm legislation not only recently, but for 30 years.
They don't say that it may take 10 years to turn that corner.
I say, further, that the Republicans in the 81st and 82d Congresses tried to pitchfork the farmer over and over again.
I'm very proud of the crop insurance program that has been developed under Democratic leadership since 1938.
