Sen. Schumer formally introduced the Family Grocery and Farmer Relief Act as S.4007 (GovInfo record: read twice and referred to the Senate Judiciary Committee on March 5, 2026) and publicly announced/championed the bill (Schumer press release, May 4, 2026). The campaign promise was to introduce the legislation to break up meatpacking monopolies, help farmers, and lower meat costs — introducing S.4007 satisfies that promise even though further legislative action is pending.
