Senator Blunt Rochester joins colleagues opposing the Food Security and Farm Protection Act, citing threats to small farmers and state laws.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester, alongside Senator Adam Schiff and 30 Senate colleagues, has expressed strong opposition to the "Food Security and Farm Protection Act" (S. 1326). They argue the act threatens small farmers and infringes on states' rights to regulate food standards, particularly affecting laws like California's Proposition 12.
The senators raised concerns about the potential undermining of existing state laws and the broader implications of federal preemption. They emphasize that many farmers have invested resources to comply with state standards, and the legislation could harm those who rely on these regulations.
The letter addressed to Senate leaders highlights the risk of unnecessary litigation and regulatory gaps that could arise if the act is included in future legislation. The bipartisan coalition is seeking a reconsideration of this proposal as part of ongoing discussions for the next Farm Bill.
