Statement on House Committee Passage of Farm Bill with Strengthened Sugar Policy

The American Sugar Alliance issued the following statement on the bipartisan passage of the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2024 by the House Agriculture Committee: 

 

“Yesterday’s bipartisan committee passage of the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2024 includes strengthened sugar policy provisions that will help ensure our family farmers and workers can continue to provide an affordable and reliable supply of made-in-America sugar. We greatly appreciate Chairman Thompson’s leadership on this issue and urge Congress to enact a strong, bipartisan five-year Farm Bill this year that will deliver greater certainty for stakeholders and a strengthened safety net for America’s farm and ranch families.”
