Iowa Democrats running for U.S. congressional seats share farm policy stances
AMES – Democrats hoping to represent Iowa in Washington, D.C., highlighted the need for a new Farm Bill, an end to foreign trade tariffs and more support for small and medium sized farms Friday during a candidate forum at Iowa Farmers Union’s annual conference.
Leadership with Iowa Farmers Union said all of the congressional and Senate candidates were invited to attend the forum. The attending candidates were all seeking the Democratic nominations in their respective races.
Each candidate was asked to respond to the question: How do the values of Iowa farmers, ranchers and rural community members shape your vision for the future of Iowa?
