Evidence
Amendment #294: "Beyer (VA), Lawler (NY), Pingree (ME)". Description: "Promotes innovative practices for soil health through USDA conservation programs, including by incentivizing perennial systems and agroforestry."
Roll Call 154 on passage of H.R. 7567, the Farm, Food, and National Security Act, was passed 224-200.
The House entered consideration of H.R. 7567, described as the bill "to provide for the reform and continuation of agricultural and other programs of the Department of Agriculture through fiscal year 2031."
The House Rules Committee’s H.R. 7567 page lists Beyer as a sponsor of a bipartisan amendment focused on soil health and USDA conservation programs, along with another USDA wildlife-corridor amendment. The page marks the Beyer soil-health amendment as submitted in the farm-bill markup process.
The House Clerk’s roll call for H.R. 7567 shows the House passed the Farm, Food, and National Security Act on April 30, 2026, by 224-200. Beyer voted no on final passage.
Assessments
Beyer took concrete same-term action on a new Farm Bill by sponsoring farm-bill amendments on soil health and USDA conservation programs, which shows he was actively fighting on the issue. The House also passed H.R. 7567 in April 2026, but the evidence does not show final enactment into law, and Beyer himself voted no on final House passage. Using federal candidate-credit standards, this supports meaningful progress and effort toward the promise, but not full delivery of a Farm Bill outcome.
Beyer made a concrete same-term effort on the farm bill by participating in the H.R. 7567 process and submitting an amendment on USDA conservation and soil health. The House passed H.R. 7567 during the relevant period, showing meaningful advancement toward the promised Farm Bill. However, the evidence does not show final enactment into law or full delivery of the promised food and farm-stability outcome, so this is partial rather than delivered.
