Support strong farm policy that invests in conservation funding, farm financing, cybersecurity protections, storage and loan programs, precision agriculture, beginning farmer access, and export promotion.

Finstad Releases Statement Following House Authorization of Year-Round, Nationwide E15
Evidence
On his Agriculture issue page, Finstad says he is committed to advancing strong farm policy written by farmers for farmers and rural communities for rural communities, and says rural and farm communities should always have a seat at the table in Washington.
Finstad said the Farm Bill was shaped by listening sessions across his district, that 17 bills he authored were included in the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026, and that he urged the Senate to pass it without delay.
The committee's 2026 Farm Bill page says the bill expands producers' access to credit, promotes precision agriculture, and enhances conservation programs, while also organizing materials on beginning farmers and stakeholder support.
Assessments
Finstad materially advanced the promise by authoring farm-policy bills, getting 17 of them included in the House-passed 2026 Farm, Food, and National Security Act, and publicly pushing the Senate to act. That shows concrete support for several promised areas, including conservation, producer credit, precision agriculture, and beginning-farmer access. But the record here does not show final enactment, and the evidence does not clearly establish delivery across the full policy list such as cybersecurity protections, storage and loan programs, and export promotion. On a federal legislative promise, that supports partial rather than full delivery.
