Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar tells the Red River Farm Network farm bill negotiations could happen over the phone in the next month. Congressional staffers will work out differences while the House is in recess. “We would just like to get it done. Sometimes with the conference committees you get an agreement on the issues and really, we are closer than we’re apart. I think a lot of attention has been drawn to the differences on the nutrition programs.” Klobuchar hints she may not serve on the farm bill conference committee.
