Today, House Agriculture Committee Ranking Member Angie Craig (MN-02) released the following statement regarding the U.S. Department of Agriculture's plan to tap the Credit Commodity Corporation to address rising costs caused by President Trump's war with Iran and global tariff regime.

"The fastest way for the president to provide farmers with meaningful and durable relief is to end his war with Iran and stop picking fights with our closest trading partners. Continuing these failed policies will lead right back to where we are next year. This latest bailout is another band-aid on a gaping wound, ignoring the root causes of the cost-of-living crisis that is straining the household budgets of farmers and millions of other hardworking Americans."
