Agriculture Committee, released the following statement tonight after President Donald Trump announced an additional $13 billion in relief funding for agriculture producers who have suffered continued losses due to the COVID-19 pandemic:

“Throughout this pandemic, ag producers in the Heartland have worked tirelessly to keep food on our tables. But with low commodity prices, the lowest cash receipts in a decade, and supply chain disruptions, times are tough for agriculture. I appreciate President Trump looking out for rural America and providing this relief for our food heroes.”
