December 21, 2024

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Pete Ricketts (R-NE) issued the following statement after voting for a Continuing Resolution to fund the federal government through March 14 and extend the Farm Bill by one year. 

“This bill avoids a government shutdown and supports Nebraska’s farmers and ranchers. It gives them the certainty and assistance they need to make crucial decisions. I’m committed to working with President Trump and my colleagues to pass a comprehensive, five-year farm bill next year.”
