house 03/14/2025 - 119th Congress
We're working to amend the Federal Crop Insurance Act with the "Crop Insurance for Future Farmers Act" to extend support for beginning and veteran farmers and ranchers. By adjusting the timeframe from 5 to 10 years, we aim to provide increased insurance assistance, helping these essential farmers establish and grow their farms successfully.

Encouraging new farmers is fine, but let's not forget the role of reducing regulation overall.

Seems fair enough to smooth the way for those just starting or making a new start in agriculture.

Veterans and new farmers deserve all the help we can give; too bad it took this long to recognize it.

Nice move to extend a helping hand, but hope it doesn't get tangled in red tape.

Great to see focus on the real future of farming, not just big agribusiness.
