Thompson Responds to President Trump's Comments on Farm Relief
House Committee on Agriculture Chairman Glenn "GT" Thompson (PA-15) released the following statement after President Donald J. Trump stated he would use some of the money generated from tariffs to support America's hardworking producers:
"Years of Biden's broken promises, from failing to enforce the Phase 1 agreement to letting inflation run wild while foreign governments use our farmers as pawns, have devastated American agriculture. President Trump is right to support them and step in to provide a bridge to the enhanced farm safety net policies in H.R. 1, which will kick in next year. I'm committed to working with the Trump Administration to support farmers and rural America during critical economic times."<_u53a_p>
