Support legislation to reauthorize and improve the relending program to resolve ownership and succession on farmland.

Mr. Bishop (for himself, Mr. Austin Scott of Georgia, and Mr. Davis of North Carolina) introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Agriculture.

Austin Scott is listed as a cosponsor of H.R. 7761, which would reauthorize and improve the relending program for farmland ownership and succession.

Austin Scott's official press releases archive lists an April 30, 2026 item titled "Rep. Austin Scott Applauds Final Passage of the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026."

This is the strongest recent official sign of Scott supporting farm-legislation action relevant to the relending-program promise, but the archive entry does not itself confirm the heirs-property relending provision or final enactment of that specific fix.

The official press releases archive shows Scott was named vice chair of the House Agriculture Committee and chairman of the subcommittee covering general farm commodities, risk management, and credit.

This shows Scott had a committee role directly relevant to farm credit legislation, but it is organizational context rather than direct evidence that he advanced the relending-program bill.
