John Thune: “I think it has dramatically changed and continues to change agriculture in rural America.”

I worry about that, for sure.

Both pieces of legislation strike at the very heart of issues that the American people care deeply about, passionately about, and we'll see if the Democrats are willing to take yes for an answer.

I like the message. But it shouldn’t be paid for with taxpayer dollars.

The only conclusion one can draw is that the Democrats have concluded that it is good politics for them not to allow the Republicans to ‘get a victory’ or the president to ‘get a victory’ in the middle of a political season.
