Lobbying activity 5

Labor Issues/Antitrust/Workplace

INFB is supportive of appropriations language that would cap the H-2A AEWR and limit the ability to enforce a 2023 DOL rule regarding H-2A occupations on farm. Getting this language passed through in the upcoming appropriations bill would provide farmers that depend on H-2A labor the certainty they need to continue their operation in a way that doesnt include continues exorbitant wage raises.

Trade (domestic/foreign)

President Trumps ongoing and changing plan for tariffs causes concern with farmers that are often the first to feel pressure from trade/tariff differences. While trade negotiations can be beneficial to our members, a long term trade battle could have negative impacts on our members.

Budget/Appropriations

INFB supports the passage of SB 1 and inclusion of farm bill programs and TCJA tax extensions in that bill. We believe the bill improves on the current farm bill and will provide our members with the certainty they need. Additionally, INFB is supportive of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Parts of the bill expire at the end of 2025, and INFB encourages that Congress reauthorize these important tax provisions. Several tax provisions that were new in the 2017 bill benefited farmers, their businesses, and their ability to pass the farm to the next generation. The OBBB includes both of these priorities within the bill.

Health Issues

INFB is adamant about being a part of the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) conversation. So far, agriculture has not been brought into the MAHA conversation, but, in several ways, has been identified as a part of the problem. INFB believes that Ag must be at the table to be a part of the MAHA solution.

Agriculture

INFB supports the passage of a 5-year farm bill. While several farm bill programs were signed into law with H.R.1, there are still several farm bill priorities that were not passed. INFB supports the passage of a farm bill that covers these lingering programs before the September 30th deadline.
