Congressman Flood: President Trump’s Ag Relief Announcement Supports Our Farm & Ranch Families

LINCOLN, NEBRASKA – Today, U.S. Congressman Mike Flood issued a statement following U.S. President Donald Trump and United States Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins’ announcement of $12 billion in relief for America’s farmers and ranchers.

“Once again, President Trump is delivering for America's farmers and ranchers. Today’s announcement provides much-needed bridge relief as the administration continues to deliver new trade deals and open up markets for our products around the world. Over the last year, the Trump administration has increased market access in countries like Vietnam, Japan, and Indonesia and put pressure on China to buy more American products, including soybeans. I look forward to working with the administration and Secretary Rollins to continue expanding domestic and international markets through measures like year-round E15, securing a new Farm Bill, new trade deals, and more.”
