On the recordFebruary 7, 2002
I rise this morning as a cosponsor of the Dorgan-Grassley amendment. We have heard and will hear this morning about large farms, small farms, medium-sized farms, baby farms, grandpa farms, a lot of farms. The fact is, large farms gain additional subsidies for every new acre they buy and every new bushel of grain they produce. In fact, the taxpayer, the Federal Government, subsidizes this transaction. Recently, the North Platte, Nebraska Telegraph wrote an excellent editorial pointing out the problems with the current farm payment system.
