[Rep. Tracey Mann @RepMann]

This month, we celebrate Kansas dairy producers who work tirelessly to provide healthy, nutritious options on kitchen tables around the country. I’m grateful for the families across the Big First whose dedication drives our nation’s dairy industry.

It is an honor to serve as the Chairman of @HouseAgGOP Subcommittee on Livestock, Dairy, and Poultry and advocate for strong dairy programs. Thank you to our dairy producers for all you do, and Happy National Dairy Month!

[DFA @dfamilk]

We’re #DFAProud of Michael Lichte, our Chief Insights and Optimization Officer, for representing America’s dairy farmers in today’s House Agriculture Committee hearing on the importance of USMCA to U.S. dairy and applauding the passage of the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act. 🥛🇺🇸

[Rep. Mark Harris @RepMarkHarrisNC]

In @HouseAgGOP, I heard from agricultural producers and stakeholders about how Congress should approach the upcoming USMCA review.

Mexico and Canada are two of the largest export markets for U.S. agriculture, and this review is an important opportunity to discuss what is working well and what needs improvement.

I remain committed to ensuring American farmers have the tools and markets they need to grow and thrive.

[Rep. Tony Wied @RepTonyWied]

This National Dairy Month, our farmers can celebrate the benefits that the Farm Bill will deliver for Wisconsin’s dairy industry.

This bill was designed to help our farmers not only continue feeding America, but also thrive for generations to come.

🗣️WHOLE MILK SHOUT OUT BY @dfamilk

The USMCA must allow full market access for American dairy farmers. Continued updates in this space can create a more fair and balanced trade agreement for the dairy farmers who work to put wholesome, nutritious foods on breakfast (and dinner!) tables across the world.

🚨 $10 BILLION in improper SNAP payments. This is what Republicans in Congress voted to stop last summer in the Working Families Tax Cuts.

Enough is enough.

[Congressman John Rose @RepJohnRose]

LISTEN UP if you care about eating or putting clothes on your back.

@SecRollins explains all the ways failed leadership has put our nation in an existential crisis.

As we embark on our nation’s 250th birthday, we owe a big thank you to @POTUS and his administration for restoring American independence and enabling future generations to enjoy the same liberty and freedom we do.

[House Committee on Agriculture @HouseAgGOP]

🗓️TOMORROW: Tune in for a full committee hearing on the future of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement.

[Congressman Brad Finstad @RepFinstad]

At last Thursday’s @HouseAgGOP hearing, I discussed the conversations I’m having with #MN01 farmers about the farm economy with @SecRollins. I appreciated her insights on @USDA’s work to expand global markets after four years of an ag trade deficit under the Biden administration. ⬇️

[Senator John Boozman @JohnBoozman]

This @WSJ editorial gets its exactly right. Our SNAP reforms empower able-bodied adults without dependents to work, learn or volunteer –– protecting the integrity of nutrition assistance so it can serve those who truly need it.

💬"These are sensible and welcome changes that 20 years ago would have been supported by both parties...the real regret is that welfare programs have become permanent entitlements that too often erode the work ethic and breed a culture of dependency on government."

[Wall Street Journal Opinion @WSJopinion]

The food stamp rolls decline—hurray. GOP reforms are paying off as more recipients work or volunteer.

[Rep. David Valadao @RepDavidValadao]

To kick off National Dairy Month, I visited @HouseAgGOP Chairman @CongressmanGT to deliver a Central Valley favorite—flavored milk.

As the only dairyman in Congress, I'll never miss an opportunity to share a taste of the Central Valley with my friends in Washington.

[Rep. Derrick Van Orden @RepVanOrden]

I was raised in abject rural poverty by a single mother, so I know firsthand how important programs like SNAP can be for families who truly need them.

That’s why I commend @SecRollins for cracking down on billions of dollars in fraud and abuse so resources go where they’re intended .

[Glenn "GT" Thompson @CongressmanGT]

Happy National Dairy Month!

This morning, @RepDavidValadao, a champion for the dairy industry, stopped by my office to deliver fresh milk. This visit was a great reminder of the hard work our dairy farmers put in every day to deliver dairy products to our kitchen tables.

David, thanks for all your work to support our nation's dairy farmers!
