Eliminate regulations on farmers and ranchers that prohibit economic prosperity

Promised to reduce regulations affecting farmers and ranchers.

Evidence

Agriculture: "Eliminate regulations on farmers and ranchers that prohibit economic prosperity."

This is the underlying campaign promise. It states a goal of eliminating agricultural regulations, but it is only a promise and not evidence of fulfillment.

Action: "Ms. De La Cruz ... introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Agriculture." Full title: "To amend the Food Security Act of 1985 to authorize payments under the environmental quality incentives program to assist producers in implementing certain conservation practices along the southern border of Texas, and for other purposes."

De La Cruz introduced a farm-related bill, but it targeted EQIP payments and conservation practices, not elimination of agricultural regulations. The bill was only introduced and referred, so it did not become law.

Action: "Ms. De La Cruz ... introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Agriculture." Full title: "To require the Secretary of Agriculture to submit to Congress a report on available assistance to agricultural producers in the State of Texas that have suffered economic losses due to the failure of Mexico to deliver water."

This was another concrete agriculture-related bill, but it sought a report on assistance for water-related losses rather than deregulating farmers and ranchers. It was referred to committee and not enacted.

Action: "Ms. De La Cruz ... introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Agriculture." Full title: "To amend the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 to extend the feral swine eradication and control pilot program."

This shows early agriculture-related legislative activity, but it addresses pest control rather than rolling back regulations. It did not enact the campaign promise.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

De La Cruz promised to eliminate regulations on farmers and ranchers that inhibit economic prosperity. The cited record shows agriculture-related bills she introduced, but they addressed EQIP conservation payments, a USDA report on Texas producers' water-related losses, and feral swine control. None eliminated or materially rolled back agricultural regulations, and the bills cited were introduced/referred rather than enacted. Because she made serious agriculture-related legislative attempts but did not deliver the promised deregulatory outcome, the promise is best rated as not fulfilled with an effort badge.

The promise was to eliminate regulations on farmers and ranchers that inhibit economic prosperity. The evidence shows De La Cruz introduced several agriculture-related bills, but they addressed EQIP assistance, reports on water-related economic losses, and feral swine control rather than eliminating agricultural regulations. None of the cited bills became law or delivered the promised deregulatory outcome.
