As the Farm Bill is being finalized, Baldwin says she hopes to see more funding come to the Dairy Business Innovation Act, “These are tough times, so I want to renew that. I want more funding behind it. but there’s many other aspects that I think are high priorities.”

Baldwin says she’s also working to create more legislation that would help protect Wisconsin farmers’ bottom line during extreme weather events like drought and flooding.
