CR includes $10 billion in ag disaster assistance.

In July, the House Agriculture Committee marked up and unanimously advanced a bipartisan Amendment in the Nature of a Substitute to H.R. 267, the 2020 WHIP+ Reauthorization Act, with many of those provisions now contained in the CR. House Agriculture Committee Chairman David Scott, D-Ga., says he's proud of the bipartisan work the House Agriculture Committee did with H.R. 267 to write many of the important provisions that are now contained in the ag disaster section of the CR. The Continuing Resolution introduced by the House on Tuesday provides critical assistance for producers across the country who have experienced severe weather conditions in 2020 and 2021.
