As a beekeeper and the owner of a small family farm, I know how hard our farmers and ranchers work to put food on our tables. With costs of fuel and fertilizer high due to Democrats' wasteful spending, it's become more and more difficult for them to make a living.
The Chinese Communist Party is buying up American farmland, and at the same time, our nation's regulatory system is being weaponized against American farmers.
We must stand up for American farmers and ranchers. As your Congressman, I'm working to lower costs and cut regulations to help our farmers thrive.
