House Agriculture Approves Farm Bill

On Wednesday, April 18 the House Agriculture Committee approved legislation that would reauthorize the current Farm Bill for another five years. The legislation approved by the Committee would keep farm supports little changed from the 2014 legislation. The 26-20 party line vote highlighted Democrat disapproval to Republican provisions that would overhaul and introduce further work requirements in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). House leadership has indicated that they hope to bring the legislation to the floor sometime in May for a final vote.
