If we're serious about protecting our crops and communities, let's invest in science—not just slogans.

More federal panels and reports? Sounds like business as usual—government talking, farmers waiting.

I’m all for fewer predictions, more action—let’s not let government micromanage Mother Nature to death.

Stretching a drought program means at least someone’s paying attention to a real problem—not bad for a change.

I’m not a fan of bureaucracy, but knowing when we’re running dry beats flying blind every time.

Extending the Drought Monitor? Because ignoring water scarcity was working so well... said no one ever.

Finally, a bill that treats drought like the crisis it is—climate change can't hide from better data forever.

Better data beats guesswork, whether you’re from the city or the farm; this bill just tries to keep us honest.
right-leaning 09/26/2025
If this bill really helps farmers prepare for drought, great; but don’t bet on Big Bureaucracy moving fast.
