August 5, 2023: Rep John Duarte on the GATES Act
Manage episode 373361258 series 3455236
The Growing Access to Environmental Sustainability (GATES) Act seeks to reduce barriers that producers face in accessing agricultural conservation programs. Congressman John Duarte, a farmer from California, is on the coalition behind the act. He says current adjusted gross income (AGI) limitations of $900,000 disproportionately limit producers with high input costs from participating in certain USDA conservation-focused programs. The congressman joins host Sabrina Halvorson this week for a discussion about the GATES Act.
