Democratic lawmakers are seeking large amounts of funding for climate concerns in the five-year farm bill, according to The Washington Post.
The bill, which would allocate billions of dollars to agriculture and food programs across the country, is being retrofitted to “tackle the climate crisis” by adding provisions that assist farmers with “green” practices, according to the Post. Alongside provisions aimed at tackling the “climate crisis,” a group of 80 Democratic members of the House launched the House Sustainable Energy and Environment Coalition’s Climate and Agriculture Task Force today, which will ensure the fam bill has “robust” climate provisions.
