ICBA urging outreach on new farm bill

Feb. 28, 2024

ICBA is urging community bankers to call and write their members of Congress on the pending farm bill.

Background: ICBA is asking Congress to enhance USDA guaranteed loan programs while blocking Farm Credit System expansion and nonfarm business-lending proposals. While farm bill timing is uncertain, action this spring is possible.

Grassroots Messages: Community bankers can use ICBA’s Be Heard grassroots action center to call and write their members of Congress as soon as possible. Call Congress here. Write Congress here.
