Mike Conaway: “I, along with many other Members of this Committee have often stated that agriculture is the backbone of rural America.”

I want American farmers participating in this, and American people support these programs in large part because they think it is American-grown products that are being used over there.

We urge Congress to continue to provide people the means to access healthy food.

Thank you for your leadership on behalf of America's farmers and ranchers, especially in such trying times.

We need to make sure that people that are unemployed, people that are having a tough time, have enough food to take care of their kids.
