NFU Statement on House Action Regarding Rail Disputes
WASHINGTON – Today, National Farmers Union (NFU) President Rob Larew issued the following statement in response to House consideration of H.J. Res – 100 regarding rail disputes:
“A disruption in rail access would have devastating impacts on agricultural supply chains across the country and today’s House action is a positive step toward keeping that chain moving,” said NFU President Rob Larew. “Farmers and ranchers have faced unprecedented uncertainty in the last few years. Further disruptions in an already fragile system would be another hard blow to family farmers. We urge Congress to take swift action to keep our rail lines running.”
