Evidence
Baldwin said she introduced the Fertilizer Transparency Act of 2026, which would require USDA to collect and publish fertilizer-price data weekly.
Baldwin said she leads bipartisan legislation to give American producers more accurate information on prices for fertilizer and fertilizer products.
Assessments
The promise was framed as an advocacy and legislative-support commitment, not as a guarantee that the Fertilizer Transparency Act would become law. In March 2026, Baldwin publicly backed the bill and official evidence says she introduced or helped introduce the Fertilizer Transparency Act of 2026 to require USDA to collect and publish weekly fertilizer-price data. In May 2026, she was still publicly leading bipartisan legislation on the same issue. That constitutes concrete same-term action to advance and support the act, which matches the promise even though the supplied evidence does not show final enactment.
