expands crop insurance and farm safety net programs
Expand crop insurance and farm safety net programs.

Evidence
Cammack and Rep. Scott Franklin introduced the bipartisan Freeze Disaster Assistance Act to provide $3.5 billion in disaster assistance for Florida agricultural producers recovering from the January 2026 freeze.
Cammack's office said the House passed the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 and that it delivered a landmark victory for Florida agriculture while securing key priorities championed by Rep. Kat Cammack.
The House Agriculture Committee said it passed the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 out of committee after a markup that lasted over 20 hours.
The 2026 farm bill overview says Title I would strengthen the farm safety net and Title XI would expand crop-insurance access by developing new policies for crops that currently lack coverage.
Assessments
Cammack materially advanced the promise during her current House term by backing and claiming priorities in the 2026 farm bill, whose official overview said it would strengthen the farm safety net and expand crop-insurance access, and by co-leading separate disaster-assistance legislation for growers. But the evidence only shows committee and House passage plus bill introduction, not final enactment into law or an implemented expansion of crop insurance or farm safety net programs. Under the stated rule, a serious legislative effort that falls short of final delivery counts as never with effort credit.
