MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Signaling the appreciation of the House Farm Bill legislation, National Cotton Council (NCC) Chairman Joe Nicosia said, “While we are all aware that Committee action is a first step – not a final one – in a longer Farm Bill process, we must begin moving forward now.” Nicosia added that the NCC is ready to assist legislator’s efforts to bring relief to farm country.
The NCC strongly supports the House Committee on Agriculture’s mark up of the Farm Bill and urges the Senate Agriculture Committee to act soon.
