Read twice and referred to the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.
This bill amends section 12513(i) of the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 by increasing the authorized funding for the Dairy Business Innovation Initiatives from $20,000,000 to $36,000,000. It therefore raises the program's authorized funding level but does not change other statutory text in the posted excerpt.
Liberals want equity and sustainability prioritization; conservatives worry about federal spending.
Relative to its intended legislative type (a targeted substantive amendment increasing authorized funding for an existing program), this bill is succinct and legally specific: it identifies the precise statutory provision to change and supplies the new dollar amount.
