Westerman to Launch Agriculture Tour

Statement

Location: Hot Springs, AR
Issues: Agriculture and Food Food Processing and Sales

Congressman Bruce Westerman (AR-04) announced Friday (October 14) the launch of a two-day agriculture tour through the Fourth Congressional District of Arkansas.

"Policy discussion should be led by the men and women working the fields, not dictated by Washington bureaucrats and special interests," Westerman said. "If we are to support our state's largest industry, we must listen to the leaders who know first-hand the challenges and opportunities that exist in agriculture. That is why I am hitting the road next week to visit with some of our state's ag leaders and producers. I am excited to visit with farmers and ranchers across the Fourth District to learn more about how decisions in Washington affect their livelihood."
