Minnesota Representative Michelle Fischbach believes there are fewer differences between the House and Senate farm bill proposals than people might think. “Chairman (Glenn ‘GT’) Thompson is working with Senator (Debbie) Stabenow to make sure that we get it into the conference committee,” said Fischbach. “There’s finer points that maybe have to be put on some of the policy, but I’m excited about it and the fact that we’re improving crop insurance.” Fischbach admits that there is still a lot of work that needs to be done and money remains a factor. “The Congressional Budget Office is holding it up because they are not scoring it properly.”
