ICBA is calling on community bankers to urge their members of Congress to include six key principles in this year’s farm bill.
Be Heard: Community bankers can use ICBA’s Be Heard grassroots action center to contact their lawmakers on ICBA principles such as providing ample funding, maintaining a strong crop insurance program, and enhancing USDA guaranteed loan programs.
ICBA Letter: ICBA laid out its six principles in letters to the House and Senate agriculture committees earlier this year.
Outlook: The agriculture committees began meeting on the 2023 farm bill last year, with hearings set to continue after Congress returns to Washington next week. Contact Congress.
