ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Senator Bennet is hosting listening sessions next month in anticipation of next year’s reauthorization of the Farm Bill. Colorado has a unique perspective on U.S. Department of Agriculture programs that are authorized in the Farm Bill, whether it’s conservation, commodities, disaster programs, rural development, forestry or nutrition. Bennet wants to make sure Colorado’s voice is part of the national discussion as Congress starts to set the stage for the new legislation.
Attendees should RSVP to james_thompson@bennet.
