Agriculture

Make Farming Great Again! Create a better and more efficient farm bill to help farmers all over the country. Stop flooding the market with foreign commodities that have less restrictive food safety standards that cause the prices of commodities produced by American Farmers.

The current Farm Bill cannot be expanded because it is wrapped up in the same Bill that includes your welfare programs like SNAP and EBT. In reality, the Farm Bill only around a 1/3 of the over encompassing Bill and the only way to expand the Farm Bill is to decrease funds from the welfare portion and no politician is going to decrease that fund in order to keep votes. So, create a separate Farm Bill that puts Farmers first

Encouraging small scale homesteading would be great too. Would also be good for local economies if people were to sell their excess to the community
