NFU supports Senator Grassley’s amendment to close the new payment loopholes, stating it is critical to refocus support on working family farmers and ensure agricultural policy remains fair and effective.
The organization emphasized that farm policy should unify and not divide, urging legislators to recommit to building inclusive policy that strengthens rural economies, ensures food security, and supports family farming.
While the current bill represents progress in some areas, NFU believes a more balanced, long-term approach is necessary to meet the full needs of producers and consumers across the country.
The organization continues to advocate for a policy framework that works for all sectors of agriculture, emphasizing the urgency of fair and lasting reforms.
