Markup Before Memorial Day? Farmers Union Talks Farm Bill

View descriptionShare

The 2023 Farm Bill drum has been beating for a while now as the deadline for this legislation has been delayed, and the timeline for when it will pass through Congress is still a question. Mike Stranz joins us. He’s the vice president of advocacy for the National Farmers Union, working on the Hill, but his roots are in northeast Wisconsin where he grew up. He gives us an update on how the Farmers Union is using this extra time to press policymakers on consolidation in agriculture. NFU is focused on ensuring there's competition in agriculture to keep input costs low and keep farms independent. He’s optimistic that Congress can get a farm bill done this year, but time will tell. He does anticipate a markup draft of the bill from the House before Memorial Day.
