GRASSLEY-FARM BILL
Tuesday, US Senator Chuck Grassley appeared in Le Mars. With the Farm Bill coming up he and 4th District Representative Randy Feenstra’s interest is primarily in crop insurance.
Grassley is a Senate co-sponsor of a bill that would overturn California’s regulations on pork production.
Senator Grassley says it’s not right for activists to set rules for agriculture.
Grassley spoke in Le Mars about the regulations which members of NIPCO face. He’s concerned that a fast turnover to renewable energy sources will eliminate backup power supplies like those used by NIPCO.
