CropLife America’s Statement on the House Agriculture Committee Passing the 2026 Farm Bill

ARLINGTON, VA — CropLife America (CLA) praised U.S. House Committee on Agriculture Chairman Glenn “GT” Thompson (R-Pa.) for his leadership on bipartisan passage from Committee of the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026. 

“Thank you, Chairman Thompson and the House Agriculture Committee, for recognizing that a globally competitive U.S. agriculture sector depends on access to pesticides that enable farmers to produce high-quality yields that feed, fuel, and clothe American families,” said CLA President and CEO Alexandra Dunn. “Your leadership to prepare and move a bipartisan farm bill was an exceptional effort. The bill includes many important provisions for growers and the agricultural supply chain. As farmers kick off this year’s growing season, Congress must act quickly to pass this farm bill. Agriculture is not just an industry — it is a cornerstone of our economic strength, food security, and global leadership.”
