  1. Rural broadband is essential infrastructure—but how should we fund it for the long haul?

    Should broadband funding be locked into permanent law, or should Congress revisit it with each new farm bill?

    What approach makes the most sense for rural communities? 💬

  3. Cowardice used to have the decency to shut up. This is cowardice with a press shop.

    When did one of these bookkeepers last lose anything for saying no?

    One glimmer of sunshine in the Trumpo v2 shitshow:
    From NOTUS:

    MAHA’s big day:
    On Wednesday, we told you about the Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wing of the Republican Party holding up the farm bill over legal protections pesticide firms enjoy in the current law. It was a big moment for MAHA vs. the traditional GOP — and MAHA won. An amendment from Rep. Anna Paulina Luna was included in the final bill, which cleared the House yesterday, that Luna’s office said “restores Americans’ right to take these companies to court when their products cause harm.” It now faces an uncertain future in the Senate.

  5. 🐷 Ah, the farm bill saga—where #pigs enjoy the luxury of gestation crates like a 5-star hotel with bars! Meanwhile, tech geniuses are flummoxed by the same #JavaScript error page that's older than the pigs' captivity. 🐽💻

  6. Oh. Great. 😖

    "The House Agriculture Committee passed the legislation without a two-year delay on the forthcoming federal ban, as proposed in separate legislation."

  7. It's hard to believe that you can legally buy THC in Florida without a Medical Marijuana Card.

    That is exactly what the 2018 Farm Bill allows nationwide. Trump probably didn't realize that when he signed it.

  8. At least for now. The 2018 Farm Bill that our Idiot in Chief signed, makes it so that you can get THC more effectively without a Florida Medical Marijuana Card (they also ship to most US states).

  9. Eric Hovde said he's not a Farm Bill expert. But Tammy Baldwin is. She's the 1st Dem in 20 years the WI Farm Bureau endorsed! They trust her dedication to farmers and rural communities. They need someone who gets them, not another clueless politician. #BlueWaveRising #Allied4Dems #FarmBill #DemCast

  10. 👀 👀 Congress’ failure to pass the #farmbill reflects a long history of hunger as politics.

    The primary issue is food stamps, (SNAP), which accounts for over 75% of farm bill spending. #SNAP has long been subject to political jockeying, and the end of expanded COVID-19 benefits, which had kept 4.2 million Americans out of #poverty in 2021. The failure to pass the farm bill is the most recent example of #hunger being used as a political #tool bluntly wielded against Americans facing poverty.

  11. The 2018 Farm Bill is set to expire on September 30th. The proposed framework for the new Farm Bill includes $30 billion in cuts to funding for the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) which would impact over 100,000 Montanans who rely on SNAP to help put food on the table. bit.ly/4d074Fh #MTPol #Montana #FarmBill #SNAP #FeedTheHungry
