I applaud these South Dakota farmers and ranchers for filing this suit to block the USDA’s RFID tag mandate, which I also introduced legislation to overturn. Our producers should not be forced to use electronic tags by federal bureaucrats. https://t.co/IXdavgNYx0

Students deserve affordable education. The Affordable Future Loan Program (AFLP) Act gives credit unions a valuable new tool to offer their members, providing students with access to affordable loan options for higher education!

[Senator Mike Rounds @SenatorRounds]

NEW: I introduced legislation to offer a new affordable student loan option that would leverage private financial institutions to cover the cost of college.

Funds from The 437 Project helped the Helpline Center support a new survivor loss website with a remembrance page.
The website was carefully crafted to offer comfort and solace when a loved one seeks grief support.

Last week, Jay Kruse & I joined a Farm Bill Listening Session with @SenJohnThune & @JohnBoozman, moderated by @michellerookag. It was a valuable chance for @DakotaCUA to discuss the Farm Bill and highlight credit unions' role in supporting farmers & ranchers in the Dakotas.

Much of the work we do at #RareByDesign is to assist in shining a light on what true diversity looks like in all our communities. Having a #disability or a #RareDisease is part of the diversity term even though so many don’t realize it. Since we are based in the state...
