Congressman Ronny Jackson has had a bill passed on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.

The approved language authored by Jackson includes disaster recovery funding for farmers who’ve been impacted by the winter storms of 2020 or 2021.

The historic winter storms resulted in over $600 million in agricultural losses, leaving many crops destroyed and the money will go a long way to recoup losses and fully restore their operations.

Congressman Jackson serves as Co-Chair of the Texas Agriculture Task Force.
