Smith Votes to Send Farm Bill to Conference Committee

 

Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) issued the following statement today after voting in favor of a resolution to send the Farm Bill to a conference committee with the Senate:
“Progress on a new Farm Bill has been uneven and at times frustrating, but today’s vote is another step toward providing long term certainty for producers and consumers.  Hopefully the conference committee works quickly to negotiate a final product which can pass both the House and the Senate.  I appreciate the patience of Nebraska’s agriculture producers and their feedback as we continue working to get this priority done.”
