Disaster relief from the @USDA was planned to be announced today for farmers in East Tennessee impacted by Hurricane Helene. However, the federal government shutdown has delayed this much needed assistance. For those farmers impacted, everyday is another day too long. We implore Congress to act immediately to end this shutdown.

The Farmland Preservation Act will strengthen rural TN by preserving & protecting farmland for future generations.

I thank the General Assembly for its partnership to support the TN farm families who drive our economy & feed the nation.

Proud to say the Farmland Conservation Act has passed the House floor! Appreciate the 84 representatives who voted in favor of preserving farmland across our great state.
