Rep. Fitzgerald Votes to Pass Legislation Supporting American Agriculture and National Security
WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Scott Fitzgerald (WI-05) issued the following statement after voting to pass H.R. 8646, the Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2027.
“America’s food security is national security, and this bill puts farmers, ranchers, and rural communities first,” said Congressman Fitzgerald. “Not only does this legislation strengthen our food supply chain, but it also invests in rural infrastructure, agricultural research, and food safety inspections that protect American producers and consumers alike. It also takes critical steps to crack down on foreign influence in U.S. agriculture and strengthens oversight of foreign-owned farmland to protect against threats from adversarial nations like China.”NOTE: This press release was submitted to Urban Milwaukee and was not written by an Urban Milwaukee writer.
