WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Representative Zach Nunn (IA-03) issued a statement after voting to pass the 2024 Farm Bill out of the House Agriculture Committee.
“The hands, hearts, and hard work of Iowa’s farmers feed and fuel the country. As a leading ag-producing state, farming isn’t just a job but a way of life. Since day one in Congress, I’ve fought to support bipartisan solutions that help put food on the table and fuel in the gas tanks of every family across the country," Nunn stated.
He continued, “After meeting with hundreds of Iowans during my Farm Bill Listening Tour, I’m proud that the 2024 Farm Bill includes 17 of our bipartisan priorities – giving Iowa an outsized voice in crafting this once-in-a-five-year bill. At a time when the chaos in D.C. distracts many politicians and prevents progress, today we gave Iowans the certainty they deserve and delivered countless wins.”
The House Agriculture Committee passed the Farm, Food, and National Security Act to improve and reauthorize critical Farm Bill programs for five years. Rep. Nunn secured Iowans’ bipartisan priorities in this legislation.
The Farm, Food, and National Security Act passed by a bipartisan vote of 33-21. It now awaits consideration by the full House of Representatives.
