Expands access to credit and risk management tools for producers facing some of the toughest times in the farm economy since the 1980s crisis.
Rick W. Allen will support measures that expand access to credit and risk management tools for producers.
Occurrences
Evidence
Allen said he voted in support of H.R. 7567 and described it as a farm bill that "expands access to credit and risk management tools for producers."
The bill text includes Title V on credit and section 11015, which calls for analysis of changes to expand insurance offerings that meet producers' risk-management needs and ensure funds support delivery of risk-management tools to producers.
Assessments
The promise was to support measures expanding producers' access to credit and risk-management tools, not necessarily to singlehandedly enact a final law. Evidence shows Allen publicly stated he voted for H.R. 7567 and specifically highlighted that it expands access to credit and risk-management tools for producers. The cited bill text also contains credit provisions and risk-management-related sections matching the promise's substance. Because he directly supported a qualifying measure while in office during the relevant term, this counts as delivered in the same term.
