The Continuing Appropriations, Agriculture, Legislative Branch, Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, and Extensions Act, 2026, extended the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (also known as the 2018 Farm Bill) at existing funding levels for one year through September 30, 2026.

Fetched verbatim passage. AI summary (separate from source): USDA’s current farm bill page shows Congress was operating under an extension of the 2018 Farm Bill through September 30, 2026, not a newly enacted farm bill, so Valadao’s stated goal remained unresolved as of the refresh date.

S. ____, Agricultural Act of 2026, as an original bill, with amendments (Not Agreed to by Roll Call Vote: 10-11)

Fetched verbatim passage. AI summary (separate from source): The Senate Agriculture Committee’s official business meeting record shows the Senate-side farm bill failed to advance from committee on August 6, 2026, documenting a block rather than final passage.

"Mr. Boozman, from the Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry, reported the following original bill; which was read twice and placed on the calendar"

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The Senate-side farm bill had a formal vehicle as of September 24, 2026, but the official GovInfo action shows placement on the Senate calendar rather than enactment or final congressional passage. No official record found in the October 10-12 lookback shows the farm bill was enacted.

"Apr 30, 2026, 11:14 AM | 119th Congress, 2nd Session Vote Question: On Passage Farm, Food, and National Security Act Vote Type: Yea-And-Nay Status: Passed"

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The House passed H.R. 7567, the Farm, Food, and National Security Act, and the same official roll call lists Valadao as voting Yea, documenting concrete House-side effort. Because the bill still required Senate/final action, this does not deliver the promise to get the Farm Bill across the finish line.
